so we have a banner ad at about 80k and are having a hard time reducing the file size to the required 40k.
what programs do you recommend for flash optimizing?
i found this one

mac or pc, doesnt matter. please help :)

flash itself should be able to optimize it, try playing with the settings maybe. You useing jpegs or imported eps files also?
- slinky0
yea, we tried the setting as much as we could.
only imported image is a 15k gif.
anyone else w help regarding optimizers? Flash Optimizer says it will optimize it by 80%

Hey man - I'll tell you exactly how you can do that, for the money you owe me. Fair deal?

Try Fireworks instead of save for web... supposedly that teqnique works better

Jevad, you might be one of the biggest asses i have ever never met.
And I thought you were a cool guy.
Now i can rehash to everyone here from day one of how things went down between this whole project and also point out your short comings with meeting deadlines and so forth and also in getting me an invoice on time.
I can give everyone here a very detailed list of everything since day 1. And I am sure they would be thrilled to have such entertainment.
As I told you... I will pay you, and I will still pay you... but I DID have ALL my business funds stolen from me by my business partner ($20k) as I told you which left me with no money. And you sent me the invoice many months late after I requested it and well after this money was stolen. And I told you that. I even sent you a screen shot of the the negative balance i had in the bank account.
you continue to refuse to contact me outside of NT... you have my IM, Email, Phone Number, etc.
I personally got into a lot of debt from this dumb business venture and I am just soon to be out of the debt.

i would'nt purchase another program to help compress the flash files.
if you can save things out at png-8 (flash compresses png better/smaller evern if a png out of fireworks or ps is larger filesize)
also mess with the export settings in flash (either globally or within each image to drop file size)
also, make sure all your images/shapes/masks etc. are movieclips that way if any of them are ever duplicated it will only have to load once and saving on file size).
good luck, and sorry to hear about that 20K! shit deal!

can any of the shapes in the flash be optimised even further?

go to your publish settings and get the size report. If your only image is a 15k gif, you must have a bunch of fonts, or audio in there?
