K, this should be simple for pros, but I have been neglecting my flash and getting mixed up with Lingo from doing too much.
On my site, in the awards section, each scrolling thumbnail is a different mc with a hit.

How can I have a continuous non-jammin scroller by loading the mc's dynamically and unloading them as they venture off screen? I wanna save weight.
Got a tutorial proposition for me?
Thnks,

you might want to post this in, maybe the actionScript forum.

Though, loading MC's over and over doesn't seem like a good way to save 'weight', because your users will need to redownload clips they have already downloaded. And if you load them when the venture off stage, what happens when the user wants to scroll them back again?

Think about how fast those MC's are going to appear as the user scrolls through them, you think a client in indonesia running a 28.8 will be able to download them that fast? Probably not.
