[color=darkred][size=1][color=black]/_–\> this has to be an array, so that I can give all thumbnails together an order. I thought this was an array, but I can’t get control over this. When I trace ‘thumbHolder’, I get back only the [/color][/size][/color][color=darkred][size=1][color=#000000]last thumb. If I trace ‘this’, than I get the right one. i.e: \_level0.thumbnails.thumbnail4) \*/[/color][/size][/color][color=darkred]  
thumbHolder.\_y = i \* spacing;  
thumbHolder.title = picHolder.attributes.title;

[color=black]I’ve been busy to understand the Bokel class, but I couldn’t find a good tutorial about thumbnail threatment. [/color]
