I ahve this random picture generator which loads into a emply MC but on a 56k connection the picture takes too lond to appear can i preload the image with the script too?

picTotal = 18;  
// adjust per total pics, img1.jpg,…,imgN.jpg, where N=picTotal  
name1 = “img”+Math.ceil(Math.random()\*picTotal)+".jpg";  
loadMovie(name1, \_root.BG);  
preloadI = setInterval(preloadF, 10);  
function preloadF() {  
if (\_root.BG.getBytesLoaded()\>=\_root.BG.getBytesTotal()) {  
// reference the target level or clip.  
\_root.BG.\_x = 0;  
// lines up your background pics.  
\_root.BG.\_y = 0;  
clearInterval(preloadI);  
}  
}

i have no idea how to do it?
