Making a preloader from this image?

1

Hello,

can somebody help me to make a preloader from this image?
I could only place the entire image on the file, but I had the right code (I think :-\ ). I also would like to put a pece,tage under it, but once I have the other part, the percentage is easy to add.

I would like the image to be build up (from below to above) while the site loads.

Thanx for the help,

greetz

hmm… this is a pretty cool idea.
i think you just have to make cuts of the picture in photo shop then just use attachMovie() with it

there is one problem i see with this though.
if you use a pic for the preloader the preloader is just probobly going to need its own preloader its self heh.
well i try some stuff out and ill tell you what i get
srry for my poor english.

Well thanx for the help! I don’t know a thing about masking, but maybe somebody can pull it of with masking this image over the real preloader (a big white rectangle).

Yhis was my idea, but once again, my Flash skills aren’t good enough to make it (if it’s possible).

So if somebody can, please don’t hesitate and let me know

/////////////////just given you an idea/////////////
//first off make it soo you have a mask thats a movie clip and it covers the whole picture//
stop();
onEnterFrame = function(){
precentLoaded = Math.floor(_root.getBytesTotal()/_root.getBytesLoaded())*100;
////////then its just _yscale magic/////
yourclip._xscale = 100;
yourclip._yscale = percentLoaded;
if(percentLoaded >=99) _root.gotoAndPlay(nextScene());
};
