Scott does the movie consist entirely of frame by frame animations or 

are there any tweened animations?  The things that I have found to 

cause slow animations are using bitmaps, gradients, and alpha fades.

I didn't notice much in the way of any of those.  Have you optimized

your outlines?


It seemed to come to me on 14.4k pretty swiftly, but response time for

rollover to animation was sluggish.
