Hi Tony,

 I am unable to see your site.

The MIME is not set on your Server, I see a blank black picture on both

Netscape 3 and 4.


Two, my internet connection to you is very slow, I have some spinning

Loading thing that has been going for what seems like forever (In IE).

The file size must be huge combined with a slow connection, thus nothing

of use.

800 x 400 is a 2 to 1 aspect ratio which is better suited to a browser

with all the chrome on. A window with no chrome is a ratio of about 1.35

to one and if you play your movie in that it in a full screen window

there will be a lot of space at the top or the bottom or both (depending

on setting of align. 


But the canvas you designed the loading movie appears to be the default

550x400.


Aftershock and using percentage sizes have no relevance in themselves,

as to whether one has to scroll or not.


I have no idea how big your files are but I suggest you use smaller ones

to test for problems and how to construct your movies.


To turn off the Grid goto Modify > Movie and unclick show grid.


BTW your first (and probably all) message came through.

With peer to peer help (for free) you have to be a little patient.


Sorry, I can't be more help, please repost with verbal details (and file

size(s)).

Note, someone else may get a good connection to your site and be able to

help.
