Simple Variable Question

I have 30 frames on my timeline and am wondering how when I get to frame 15 say I can load an image from a folder, and then at 25 load another image into the same MC?

Alright, here's what you do.

Create a new movieclip that's empty, and export it for actionacript (right click, Linkage...). Also, the "Linkage" for the MC you want should be "my_mc."

Create a new layer called actions. Create a new keyframe in frame 15 and type the following code into the Actions - Frame thing:

Code:

_root.attachMovie("empty", "MCs",1000);
MCs.attachMovie("my_mc", "my_mc",10000)

And in frame 25, keyframe:

Code:

MCs.attachMovie("mySecond_mc","mySecond_mc",10000)

Something like that. Obviously "mySecond_mc" is the second movieclip to be attached.

And, if you wanted an image, import the image to the library (file > import) and do the same linkage.
