Loading Remote Pictures?

[Ram0135]

I have a photo slideshow template that I built in Photoshop and imported into Flash. There is a white space for the pictures and I normally have to import the picture I want there into the library and such. Is there a way that I can load the picture remotely. I want to have both a dialup and flash site so the dialup would have the plain pictures sized for the flash movie... And then when a flash user clicked on the link for the flash album, the flash movie would load that picture and center it and such into the specified place. Is this possible?

Thanks,

Not sure what you are referring to when you say you want to have a dial up and a flash site... these things cannot be compared, so you post is a bit confusing. In terms of loading an image dynamically from outside of flash as runtime you would do this..

Create an empty movie clip and position it in the upper left corner of the white space on your template.

Create a function that loads the image using the following syntax...

myEmptyMovieClip.loadMovie("myImage.jpg");

You must use a .jpg image.
