Am a real novice and started learning Flash about a week ago.
have a site working on that is 1.4 MB in *.swf. have played around once uploaded and definitely need to put a preloader on. when i access the site on wide band, takes about 15 seconds to load. however, once i put in preloader, it still takes about 15 seconds to download, runs through the preloader in about 1 second and then am in.
Question is: how to (1) start playing the preloader before entire site is downloaded?
1.4mb, that is pretty big… do that tutorial jillymo posted for the preloader and then take a look at this: Click here this is a very good way to keep your file sizes down by breaking them up into multiple files. Most if not all people here would tell you to do it this way… so you might as well learn now.
