How can I make it load faster? How can I reduce the file size of the swf’s?.. I mean, even with broadband Internet connection it takes a while to load the site…and, oh… i’ve seen some sites that seems to use “cookies” when loading these Flash files… i mean, once you’ve seen the site , when you login again it loades instantly

The site it’s quite simple, doesn’t have complex animation and has a lot of JPG’s and GIF’s but they’re fairly reduced filesize ( nothing over 15Kb)…

Thanks for your help!

1. How big is your swf(s)
2. Are you loading any music?
