In the Tut: Photo Gallery using XML and Flash, the image is faded to 0 BEFORE the next image is faded to 100. Is it possible to get the imcoming image to fade in WHILE the outgoing image is be faded out?

function nextImage() {  
if (p\<(total-1)) {  
p++;  
if (loaded == filesize) {  
picture.\_alpha = 0;  
picture.loadMovie(image[p], 1);  
desc\_txt.text = description[p];  
picture\_num();  
}  
}  
}
