I have a simple flash photo album for my site. Each picture is on a different scene, and I have two buttons on each scene: back and next. When i open up the web page, it takes some time to load, so i decided to make a preloader, but it didnt work for some reason.

Basically, i just need help on creating a more efficient phot album that doesnt take long to load.

i just figured out that it is putting the top left corner right in the middle of the rectangle i made. also, when i make the back and forward buttons, do i put them on a new layer? and do i put each of them on the same layer?

Glad you’ve found the solution (post#3)🙂  
You can put both buttons in a (seperate) layer.

my buttons aren’t working, but the album works with the arrow keys on the keyboard. i tried putting the buttons on the same layer, and on a seperate layer, and neither does anything. hmm…

Here’s the fixed .fla:)  
I think the problem was you had a button in a button in a button, so I removed your buttons and replaced them by “circle button previous”/“circle button next”.
