well…It’s probably done by AS, but you could do it by animation if you wanted to, it’s quite possible.

something like that may best be done with tweens

Set your end position the ease in all your images then offset the right one to start first then 5 frames after start the next etc so they all actually stop at the same time

the exact thing you can use does allready exist but it takes a bit of familiarity with AS just to “borrow” the ASfiles collection and apply it to your project…(let alone build from scratch)

go to:: [http://www.ultrashock.com](http://www.ultrashock.com)

you’ll have to sign up then go to mx tutorials and find the “moose” Time scripted movement- parts I & II and follow through … there are source files available that contain free to use script module files (#include them in your movie)

…anywho, check that out …

go with the basic tweening for the simplicity of this action.

I may look smooth but is reletively simple to achieve the effect!

What if he had to add or subtract a photo?..What if this person has dozens of sections that this effect will be used in?  
Using a tween for that would both take too long, and not be very dynamic. This is why doing this by AS would be more effecient.
