I’m still quite new to actionscripting and wondered if anyone could give me some pointers over the next few hours.

I’ve done a few bits a actionscript, but I still feel that it han’t quite clicked in my brain. I keep needing to ask very basic questions on , syntax, method etc…

I’m trying to build a photo gallery that has a sort of elastic thumbnail menu. I could just rip someone else’s, but that isn’t going to help me develop.

What I’m trying to do today is make something similar to CommanderCool’s elastic menu. I want to replace the coloured boxes with thumbnails (15). I can then link each one to it’s full size image using loadmove.

[CommanderCool’s Menu](http://www.kirupaforum.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=32928&highlight=CommanderCool)

I’m not sure how to get this help session started, so i’ll just post it and see how we go.

Thanks in advance…

Capt,
