I'm having a problem loading some jpeg's into a swf file using XML in a reserach project i'm currently working on. The program loads in pictures of people at a size of 200x150, jpg format only. I have a list of nodes in an XML file that flash reads from and loads into a movie clip in the center of my flash movie.

Is there a special way to format these pictures so they'll appear in flash? When i first recieved them, they were 300 dpi, and their image mode was greyscale. I tried changing both to the same values as all the other pictures i've ever used (72 dpi and RGB mode) in photoshop.

I'm using flash MX 2004 professional, and was wondering if anyone has come across this problem or knows why flash won't load these JPGs? I've tried everything i can think of! :confused:

Howdy and Welcome... :)

You just make sure that the JPEG files are not saved as 'progressive jpeg' which Flash does not understand... That's all you need to remember... :)
