I have created a prelaoder for my whole .swf file but as this .swf is a gallery I would like to load in pictures when you click on certain pictures is there anyway to do this i.e if you load picture01.jpg into movie01 how do you use a preloader to preload this???

you could make a seperate swf with your picture in it,  
and put a preloader in front of it. Then load the swf instead of the jpg.
