    use the loadMovie and loadMovieNum to load a outside JPG or GIF. It has to be in the same domain as your movie.

    FinalHit,

    Flash will only load non-interlaced JPGs.

    Your code should work fine, as long as you are loading a JPG and you have an MC instance named loadhere on the root:

    _root.loadhere.loadMovie("pic.jpg");

    Cheers,
    ZE.
