I’m not an expert in Flash but I’d like to know if its possible to do the following-

1. Create a Flash File (SWF).
2. Run the SWF.
3. Then import an image INTO the SWF.
4. SAVE the image WITHIN the SWF.
5. From then on, every time whenever the SWF is run, the image is displayed.

I’m not completely new to Flash. My main question is with reference to point 3-5.

In short, I want to add a image to a SWF and then save it within the SWF. From then on, if I share the SWF, that image is always available and more images can always be added.

I would like the image to stay within the SWF only. No other technique such as keeping the image in the same folder and using _LoadMovie_ would work.

Additional Information -  
Platform is- Flash Lite 2.0 (Flash 7) with AS2.0

Thanks in advance!
