Hello,

```
I have a site I'm working on and I'm trying to include an swf as part of the site design like this site does:

```

[http://www.bonnaroo.com/2006/](http://www.bonnaroo.com/2006/)

If you notice this page when it loads, it loads the swf immediately w/out showing a white block before the swf loads.

My attempt, on the other hand, shows a white block before the swf loads:

[http://americanchikung.com/new\_site\_templates/](http://www.bonnaroo.com/2006/)

Any ideas on what I can do to make my site more like the bonnaroo’s?

Thanks for your help,
