I have a idea for a preloader but don’t really know where to start with it…
instead of a progress bar i want to a glass getting filled with something…kinda like a bartender makeing a drink animation…
and the liquid level being the prgress and a animation of a hands poreing the drink.
any help would be great

You’re not asking the wrong question. What you want is easy to do. Check out this tut:
[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/percentagepreloader.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/percentagepreloader.htm)
This tut shows you how to make a graphic object grow as it’s preloading.
I, being a bartender, would love to do it for you, however, this site is for helping, not doing for you. Experiment with that tutorial - if you have questions on how it works, ask. I’ll be happy to help you.
