Re: seeking a second opinion: a clarification

There's one trick I forgot and I don't really know if this will help with 
the SWF file size or not.  But Flash tends to add on to the size of it's 
FLA file as you work on it so the files become massive.  If you save the 
FLA file under a new name it will substantially reduce the file size.  As I 
said, this may or may not reduce your SWF file size but it would be worth a 
try.
