I made a website for a photographer in Flash Mx, ([www.yossisudri.com](http://www.yossisudri.com)) and the only problem I have is that the picture galleries load too slow. The pictures are in different swf movies and the thumbnails load those movies. I have tried to make the jpegs as small as possible… but it is still slow…  
can somebody help me to compress that?  
thank you!

Did you load the pics in full size then make them smaller in flash? If so, the filesize is the same.

If you did do that - I would take all the pictures, put them in Photoshop, resize it there and Save For Web so they get optimized as a jpeg. That way the thumbnails will only be like 2K and will load quickly. 🙂

thanks for your answer…  
I did save the jpegs in photoshop as small files as possible. the jpegs are about 65 k and the MC are about 70 k

how do you think I could make that smaller?  
thank you

Could you post one of your original jpegs; I want to see why a picture so small would be 65k…maybe I can help (-:
