```auto
this.pathToPics = "";
```
Are all your pics (adam.jpg, corey.jpg, group0.jpg etc) in the same folder as your .swf and .html files?? I had mine that way and got the same thing but then I put the pics in a folder by themselves and it worked fine, just change the above code to be the online path to your pics folder (i.e. “pics/”) like the comments say.

And
```auto
loadMovie(this.pathToPics+this.pArray[8], _root.photo);
```
will call the 9th element of the array, cause arrays are zero-based, and there are just 8 elements…
Also be sure your jpegs are non-progressive:)
