Hello World!

Well I'm not sneezing and wheezing anymore, and I can actually smell again!! Woot!

Currently i am stuck on one area of my research project.

In simple terms, I am looking to create a program in flash which
1. picks random images from a selection that i have created
2. places them randomly on the screen

To do that I need a placeholder that I attach script to. A movieclip.
I can get this movieclip to pick random images, or i can get the movieclip to duplicate itself.

But not both at the same time!! I really need this movieclip to duplicate itself, each with a script that says it needs to pick a random image. So far I'm getting duplicates with the SAME image, or one movieclip with a random image.

ANy ideas?

I've signed up to a forum (actionscript.org) and posted for help. Adam Parker is yet to be seen.


I think i'm spending too much time on this problem when I could be doing other things like picking a name for this project, thinking of collaboration ideas, etc etc.





Here's something I found on someone else's blog. His comment was that no way this Lois Lane thing would be shown nowadays. So true, huh?
