But why do images with transparency in them differ from this rule...they seem to exceed the maximum size earlier than those images that do not have transparency. I understand that they are bigger because of the alpha channel, but would like to know the exact rule about their max size if there i

Tim, Thanks for your help on this. I feel like I am getting a little closer, but would like to get full understanding so that I can make a good decision on how to proceed. The 2880 limit seems to be related to the problem, however it is interesting that this limit only seems to affect transpa

Hi Gary, There is a 2880 pixel limit for images. Your image is too wide. -TH --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "toofah_gm" wrote: > > I am seeing cases when the image loader COMPLETE event will not fire. Does anyone know why this is the case? I wonder if there is something wrong with some of
