Hi there, I love your new website! So many Strike Eagles around, I just love it!

One request though is in the screenshot section - is it possible that we could preview the screenshot before viewing them? Some of these take a while to load, and would be nice to see the entire spread before browsing through each and every one of them.

The Area 51 issue has been fixed now, great stuff.

If it was any other way we would have to make new flash players each month to put new images in. But later on down the track I could look at making a new code.
I hope this helps.

Hi Lawman...
I think you completely mixed up..
I know Flash programming and live upload of images to the flash player...
It basicly uses XML files and then load the content to a symbol...

Even in the way you built the site (that in my opinion is a little messy - having a folder to every month and a flash file to each section and all of that) you can still use a dynamic php file that will compile and render thumbs that are no more then 3 kbs... and then load them to symbols on the flash...

It's really not so hard... and I could help you on that if needed...
In the same time you could organize a little bit the sources of the site to make it more efficient...

Only my 2 cents of course...
I hope you'll take it as constructive criticism and not be offended because it's not what I direct my words...
