Preloader with external images

Hi,

I am new with AS and I have encountered a problem which requires your help.

The thing is, that I am trying to create an image gallery that loads the images externally. In addition I have created a preloader animation which should play before the images will load. For some reason (:{) it loads the preloader first and then the external images.

I have attached a test file which will help you better understand this issue,.

Can anyone help me?

BTW- the code is AS2+CS4

Cheers ,
