Is is possible to use gifs with this tutorial? [http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/photogallery.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/photogallery.htm) I tried and they are not showing up. I have no problem when I use jpegs. :puzzle: ---

You can only load jpegs and swfs using loadMovie ---

You could use php to convert the gifs to jpgs, then load them, however it will still only take jpegs or swfs ---

it’s arguable whether gifs are even any smaller than the same image as a jpeg. Any reason you want to use gifs instead of jpegs?
