Hi…  
I wanted a tile-based loader in AS 3.0  
I mean I have this big image which is much bigger than the screen. Only the areas which are visible on the screen should load first. This areas may be square areas (say 100x100 pixels)  
These areas on loaded should display on the screen. Then the areas which are outside the screen should load.

Is this possible in AS 3.0 ? If not can you suggest some other sources.  
I have seen this kind of loading on the net. Thanks…
