It doesn't unload the images when going to the next frame. But you can force to unload the images simply using unloadMovie method. If you pass target movieclip to the preloader then unloadMovie(your_target_mc) should unload it nicely. If you let preloader to create a target automatically, then you should call it this way: unloadMovie(your_preloader_instance_name.preloader_target); 'preloader_target' is a movie clip which is automatically created if no target mc is specified. Soon preloader will be updated and unload() and parameters for loaded image/clip sizing will be added. Stay in touch and get it soon. @rene,

It is very easy to use and easy to set up. Only I had to copy paste from your movie into a new one, because direct loading from the file did not work. also it does not resize the image to the placeholder size (but hell, just make sure the images are the correct size :) ) The best thing is, it works with Flashlite! Superb. I only wanted to ask you, does it unload the images when moved to another place in the frame or is there a way to force the unload. as I am working with flashlite I need to keep the resources low. Cheers! I am really impressed by your preloader. It is very easy to use and easy to set up.
