Thank you, Markku.

You mentioned that little skip when those buttons came in... I've noted

that, too, and I suspect that I have my preloader configured wrong, or Flash

simply doesn't like all those bitmaps appearing at the same time - which

could it be, folks? My preloader is set to wait for the final frame of the

opening Scene to load, and during the preload section at the beginning I

have all the bitmaps hidden so that they'll load first, but it still

hiccups. This also happens on another project.

Any ideas? I've looked at preloader tutes, but I'm not sure I'm doing these

right.
