I’m stumped and confused. I made a website for a makeup artist that has a splash image loading into the main movie. For some reason, it doesn’t load on PC’s, but does on MAC’s. I wasn’t aware that there were different performance behaviors on the two systems with Flash as it’s self contained. Am I crazy?

I also had a problem with streaming mp3’s. Worked on a MAC but on a PC the file was downloaded to the desktop.

At any rate, the website is [http://www.sonyamakeup.com](http://www.sonyamakeup.com). After the name fades up and out you should see an image fade in with the menu system.

This is what I use on the main movie to call the splash image.

\_root.splash.loadMovie(“splash.swf”);

Any help greatly appreciated.
