improving my first flash site

[antronics]

hiya,

could some of you be so kind and check my test flash site and give me feedback on how to improve my .swf and .fla? (though it might be a bit newbieish )

i tried to reconstruct the navigation of http://www.thebees.info, but couldn't clone the zoom mechanism (tried for days).
they apparently have a fixed point to which the layers zoom to if you rollover certain objects in the landscape, but still its flexible enough. mine is stuttering around if you rollover the buttons in the middle from below. thebees.info works from either direction.

i'd be great if someone could check my fla (2.3mb due to images) and hint me in the right direction.

besides the zoom mechanism, i'd like to accomplish a smoother animation when the images change direction. check thebees.info for this as well.

i'm desperate to finish this project. already lost some hair over it i think...

i know that it is heavy on the image side of flash, but thats how my friends wanted it to be. oh, and i'm using flash mx.

i really appreciate your help and thoughts on this!

cheers,
antronics
