first of all i really discourage the use of scenes. 😃 ugly things really…

[font=Arial]A design firm created a Flash site for me. I looked at the FLA file and they created it in scenes. The total size of the SWF file is 485K, so is that fine for dialup people or should we have all the scenes broken out? If so, do I make each scene an SWF file? Tough to do?

Also, I need to add one element to the FLA file and it needs to be in the EXACT same spot on all the scenes. Rather than manually placing it and running the risk of it not being in the same spot on all the scenes (not to mention very time consuming), isn’t there an easy way, like how you can select something and hit the “distribute to all layers” button?

Yay for me. I figured out what the problem was - The actionscript read

```auto
gotoandStop[\code] and not 

```

gotoAndStop[\code]! I hate actionscript 2.0 Am i the only one that feels this way?
