hey,

thanks for your interest. creating a slideshow should be quite easily possible if you dont want any effects but just replace one submovie with the other. import your swfs with swfmill simple mode and place them in one frame each at the same depth, so they replace each other.

you might also want to have a look at mark's intro [1], if you need any further help please say so.

you won't need any actionscript/MTASC magic unless you want any kind of animation...

10 minutes later: i got interested if this works out nicely, and it does, at least for my jpegs ;) see my latest blogpost at http://0xdf.com/
