maybe it’s an addressing problem

```auto

on (release) {
	loadText = new LoadVars ()
	loadText.load ("nokia.txt")
	loadText.onLoad = function() {
		_root.scroller.text = this.nokiatext
	}
}

```

your dynamic text instance name should be ‘scroller’ [size=1][no quotes][/size]  
and your text file should look like this:

nokiatext=bla bla bla

tell me if it works 😏

What I want to know is where “imxtremelybored” stole his images from.

Seriously… take a look at his site. You have this BEAUTIFUL 3d, cad, or cg created image with white, misplaced text…

I think that you, imxtremelybored, should probably give the author of those pictures their due credit and say so on your site.
