I am trying to create a preloader and i have tried following the tutorial on this site but i am having no luck.

I have a logo that i would like to spin slowely at first, however, as the load percentage goes up i would like it to spin faster and faster. When the movie has loaded i would like the logo to continue spinning at the final rpm.

This is the code i have tried so far, i am a complete n00b at AS, however i did have a go.

**First Frame**  
[actionscript]  
bytes\_loaded = Math.round(this.getBytesLoaded());  
bytes\_total = Math.round(this.getBytesTotal());  
getPercent = bytes\_loaded/bytes\_total;  
this.Logo.\_rotation = getPercent_100;  
this.Percentage = Math.round(getPercent_100)+"%";  
if (bytes\_loaded == bytes\_total) {  
this.gotoAndPlay(3);  
}  
[/actionscript]

**Second Frame**  
[actionscript]  
this.gotoAndPlay(1);  
[/actionscript]

**Third Frame**  
[actionscript]  
stop();  
[/actionscript]  
**-Logo Movie Clip**  
[actionscript]  
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {  
bytes\_loaded = Math.round(this.getBytesLoaded());  
bytes\_total = Math.round(this.getBytesTotal());  
getPercent = bytes\_loaded/bytes\_total;  
this.Logo.\_rotation = getPercent\*100;  
}  
[/actionscript]

What am i doing wrong?

This is an example of my aim:  
[The [url=“http://www.weebls-stuff.com/toons/55/”]preloader of this http://www.weebls-stuff.com/toons/55/](http://www.weebls-stuff.com/toons/55/)
