Hey, can you tell me how to associate a loading flash movie with another larger flash file? I know that there is a way to say like:

LoadMovie
repeat
PlayMovie
until MovieIsLoaded

Something like that, but I need the specific instructions of how to play a loading movie and load another one, until the other one is loaded. If that makes any sence ;) ! Thanks!

basically you want an animated pre-loader movie, which plays while you fully load the main flick?

try this easy tutorial:

I know that they are from the show, but I still don't know what you are talking about.

In other words, why would you post something like that in here and not in the Lounge, where everyone was talking about stuff like that and noone would have a problem with an off topic post like this? ;) !

"Mr. Homer, are you trying to take advantage of the free refill policy on our squishy machine?"

The point is, and please take this with a light heart, that if you are going to go around and profess to be the 'Real Homer Simpson', you need to remember two things:

1. The 'real' homer Simpson has the middle initial 'J'

2. Lighten up and smile when you see a random Simpsons quote :). Expect the possibility of other fans to add a random comment here and there. Because, quoting the Simpsons is something 'real' fans do all the time...

ciao Homer,

john

Did you think I was mad? HA HA! :D ! You obviously can't tell people's exprecions from typing. Don't worry, I don't get mad very easily. So, you don't need to really tell me that stuff. ;) ! Anyways, It is actually Homer Jay Simpson. And I figured that people do not use their middle names so I wouldn't use his. Don't worry, you are new to the board and I am sure that we will forgive you. ;) . Just so you know I was joking there. Because I know you can't tell my expressions very well ;) !
