Yeah, it's easy when you ask someone else how to do it and you just apply it
to the particulars of your file!
I had someone else cough up the loader.
On the other hand, the movie starting before the whole thing is loaded
causes problems on occasion, when the user knows where to go and
inadvertantly tries to view things that aren't loaded yet. Causes
problems...

Shore 'nuff iz!
It's all those bitmaps that the client insisted I use in the file, and we
all know what bitmaps do to file sizes.
And I had even redone in vector art some of the images used, so the file was
even bigger at one time!
ZOIKS!!

That's hard to answer when each individual project has its own needs and
content.
After optimizing your file, it will be as big as it's going to be.

I do hope that someone will go take a look at the site and give some of the
feedback I've asked for for over a week now.
