Hey All, First post here!!! Im just wondering why my STATE SIZE is always almost double the size of my MOVIE SIZE in Flash MX’s Bandwidth Profiler. For example, my last flash project produced these results. MOVIE SIZE = 13kb :beam: STATE SIZE = 26kb (loaded 100%) :q: Whats up with that? What bloats the file size by so much? Can I optimize this? I have already checked for artwork that isnt in the Library, I have no sound and perhaps about 15 lines of basic actionscript! Any help or advice would be great… Thanks in advance! Mecha ---

Could be anything - fonts you loaded, image compression, movie compression… Post your fla if you want some help… ---
