Hello:

I've created a slideshow in Flash that randomally loads one of 15 images every 30 frames (that is, the iamge displays for 30 frames and then swf loads another image). The problem I am having is that before we made it load the images dynamically, it was loading text dynamically on a layer above the images layer. Now that I have the images loading dynamically, the other layers above the image layer do not show up when playing the movie. Anyone have any thoughs?

instead of using frames id just keep it to a 1 frame movie and randomly load the image and associated text every so often (30 frames sounds like about every 2 secs)

just requires one empty clip for the images and a dynamic text box.

Thanks, Bill, for the quick response. So I should rethink the movie, and that might solve my layer problem? Cool, I'll try that. Thanks again!

Redid the movie and it worked out great! Thanks for the advice!
