    but the movie loads in the wrong place any ideas why.

    here is the link:
    wait for the LOGO" red lite" to load then click on (vip section) thats the only button that works, so u have to wait tell it loads.

    hi,

    the sprite you're loading the movie into is probably placed at the top left. just movie it to the center of the canvas (or try to find the correct coords by moving it around).

    there are some flash forums around, however i'd recommend you to choose a non-flash solution like ikonboard, ipb, yabbforum etc. (ipb is my favorite), which are all free to use, fully customizable, and they come along with excellent instructions.

    you'll need a php enabled server to run a bulletin board.

    doublecheck that you're not loading into a level instead of a sprite.

    if it doesn't work, post the swi files of both the main movie and the loaded movie.

    here is the .swi file, and the swf file to be loaded in.

    the button with the action to load in sprite is in a group named: redlite logo inside this group there is a button called (vip_pics) thats the action button to be programed to load the movie into sprite. thx for your hel and hope to hear from u soon.

    you simply have to move the "movieloader" sprite. the top left corner of the loaded movie will appear in the sprites icons' center, so you'll have to move the sprite to the top left. i've roughly corrected the sprites position:
