What is too big?

[teriB]

When is a swf too big???

[farafiro]

for the web
all >60K is TOO big

[snapple]

Most of those options aren't really viable options in my opinion.

You have to remember that the majority of people who use the internet still use 56k dial up modems, in which case (as farafiro pointed out) >60k is going to cause problems - and non of the above options are really that great.

What would you think would be a better option -

a hypothetical project with

20 images (no animation) around 10k each

Voice over tracks (20 MP3s) one for each image

subtitles- loaded from a text file (no real size)

What would you do?

This is a question floating around the office - and I think the argument is quality Vs size.

hey Teri
u can always load your assets dynamicly from out of the swf and use a nice preloader
