Hola,

I’m a newbie to both Flash and ActionScript. I’m trying to revamp the portfolio section of my company’s web site. We want it to look and function almost identical to this:

[http://www.cogneato.com/portfolio/](http://www.cogneato.com/portfolio/)

Obviously, we’re going to use our own colors and style to the file, but we want it to scroll left and right via buttons, have clickable thumbnails that enlarge in a separate pane, and have the motion speed be **just** like the above sample.

I’ve scoured numerous forums and Flash-dedicated sites, but none of them seem to have a solution for the above method. I realize that all one has to do is extrapolate from the numerous examples out there to get something like the above sample, but as I said, I’m a newbie and my Flash and ActionScript skills are rudimentary.

Can someone show me how to achieve this effect, or at least where I can go to read or download information that will allow me to get this **exact** scrolling thumbnail gallery?
