That's what I was afraid of.  I want to avoid doing that, as the
brand.swf it meant just to be an external library which can be swapped
around, though I guess I could have my main.swf build the UI inside
the uiResources MC.  Kind of ugly though.

I'm guessing I could do it with links, but from what I've seen online
the link depends on a URL to the brand.swf, which doesn't really work
since I want to be able to use different brand.swfs and pick them at
runtime (probably as a parameter to the movie).  Is there a way to use
links without having a fixed URL for the linked SWF?

you cant attach symbols from a loaded swf to a different parent, you *must*
attach them somewhere in the tree where their library exists.

you have to do uiResources.attachMovie instead of _root.attachMovie

its a nasty limitation of flash (pre v9, in v9 you can manipulate the display
heirarchy pretty much as you like)
