Thanks Glen,
I will look that up.
I kind of figured I would need some kind of script help in the
process, but was just wondering if Flash had the capabilities.
Like when your in the "open file" dialog window. The thumbnail you
see. Retrieving that somehow in flash.
No SystemCapabilities function for something like that?
Best,

Hi,
Don't think you could do this in Flash without loading the whole
image file, even if it did have a thumbnail - not sure if this is a
feature of the JPEG / PNG spec or not?
If you are loading images from the server, you could run a
script that generates thumbnails "on the fly", (hopefully caching
them for further browser requests). There are loads of free
scripts - phpThumb is one I have seen that may do the caching too.

They sometimes come with an embedded thumbnail.
I wanted to know if you can access this and use it to display.
I am working in AS2. Would it take a code to do that, or no way to
do that in flash?
Any thoughts would help.
Thanks,
