Perloader Question (resolved)

[byanfu]

I'm pretty sure I can guess the answer to this already. I don't have flash or a flash alternative at the moment. I was wondering if its possible with just some code to add a simple preloader to an animation that I exported to swf. I'm assuming not since when I try to access the code in a swf file all I see is gabati gook.

I was hoping there might be a way to do this like you can skin an flv file.

looks like its impossible to edit in a text editor, too bad.
