The only problem with that is the layout of the entire site makes that pretty

impossible... I don't know where they'll be coming from, and a page that is

there solely to load up graphics would likely stop the person from viewing the

section altogether (because this flash movie IS the intro, and you can't intro

an intro without seeming like there's too much crap to wade through)... that

was the first thing I tried :)

I thought of that too, but the site is supposed to flow, and this section can't

be that much different than another ones...


My problem is that even with the images in the cache the movie is starting

before the rest of the page loads...
