Q: I changed images in my flashfader flash movie, but I don’t see the changes in my browser. What’s wrong?

A: When you are adding or subtracting new images from your flash movie, you may not see your changes immediately. This is because many browsers “cache” .swf files. English translation: many browsers download and save flash movies in a temporary folder to speed page loads. Your browser may be using an old version of your flash movie. To get around this, you can just wait a couple days, test in another browser, or force your browser to empty its cache.  The option to force the browser to empty its cache can often be found in preferences, or options, or privacy, or something like that.
