i know there MUST be a faster way to write this (maybe using a for loop???):
this.createEmptyMovieClip("imageHolder0", this.getNextHighestDepth());
this.createEmptyMovieClip("imageHolder1", this.getNextHighestDepth());
this.createEmptyMovieClip("imageHolder2", this.getNextHighestDepth());
this.createEmptyMovieClip("imageHolder3", this.getNextHighestDepth());
this.createEmptyMovieClip("imageHolder4", this.getNextHighestDepth());
this.createEmptyMovieClip("imageHolder5", this.getNextHighestDepth());
this.createEmptyMovieClip("imageHolder6", this.getNextHighestDepth());
or even this:
var thumbs:Array= new Array (movieRow.thumb0.holder,movieRow.thumb1.holder,movieRow.thumb2.holder,movieRow.thumb3.holder,
movieRow.thumb4.holder,movieRow.thumb5.holder,);
i learning about arrays, and rather than writing things over and over, i was hoping to find a faster way, especially if i had to make 50 or 60 instances!
