Does anyone know how to play a sequence of frames in reverse in Flash MX? I'm pretty boned up (hur hur) on the thing, but I can't seem to find what should be a simple function. Please God, don't tell me that I have to make each frame a keyframe and use some stupid decrementation action!

Gah, you knew I didn't mean that - you're just winding me up on purpose!!! What I need to do is play a movie in reverse, not have mirrored frames.

No - quite a lot bigger. For an entire website (assuming you have transitions and sequences, not just static pictures) you will be looking about 1/2 mbs.

Even more if you're using converted bitmap images.

Reversing frames is as easy as Edit > Reverse frames!;)
As for file size, just ise the bandwidth profiler, as long as you stay below the red line, bingo!

Also, another Flash question while I'm 'at it' - what's an acceptable filesize for a site made entirely with Flash? I've done some research into this before, and I reckon it's probably about 100kb. Does that sound about right?
