what frame action(s) could I use on to randomly load images dynamically from a folder of about 100 jpegs, with a progress loadbar as the image loads?
thanks and apologies in advance-- it's over my head

it is not a completed project, I did this back in january or sth. like that.
All you have to do is upload a specific sized image to the server and add that's line to the xml file and viola your image is added to the queue and gets called from the genericpreolader.
are you looking for somethin like this ?

thanks oz, the big thing for me is the random aspect.
I'm looking to have a sequence of frames with a different random pair of images in each one. Since there are over 100 images, i can't preload them all, so I need to have a loading progress indicator if that particular image hasn't loaded yet.

hmm what I can advice you is loading images externally instead of putting them on frames, you can then put those names in an array and call them randomly from that array. and you can then call if it is loaded or not checking this array's element genericly, putting frames is bad imho.

umm maybe I didn't get it right.
"I'm looking to have a sequence of frames with a different random pair of images in each one. "
can you elaborate?

the end goal is an alternating sequence of texts and images that you click through. The text is sequential, but the images are random pairs of external jpegs. Ideally, eventually all of the images will have loaded into memory and will appear instanly, but until that time each would require a loading indicator
