I made a holder for my external swf files in my flash site, however, why do the external files turn bigger when they’re loaded? I made the external swf files the same size as my holder, but they get bigger when loaded in my flash site.  
So I tried increasing the size of my holder, but the files still get bigger when they’re loaded…
