never had that problem before, but you should upload SWF files anyway. They are a pain in the arse to view…

I would upload it to my website and just use [swf] to view it. If you upload then the person has to right-click and press SAVE TARGET AS… and its just annoying…

and yes I meant shouldn’t.

you could just ask someone to host if for you  
i could probably host a couple flashes for you if you want… email them to [otnes28@hotmail.com](mailto:otnes28@hotmail.com)

I’ll put them on my site after i get home from work in like 5 hours  
if that’s not soon enough I’m sure someone else will do it for you
