Hi Patrick,

Sorry, I didnt notice I had replies, I thought I had email
notifications on, but apparently not!

I am having memory issues, especially with the preloading of images

It's quite a big issue for me, given that we're working with 1000
images, each around 30kB..


If I find a clever way around loading them all, I'll post it here.


Cheers,
Ian
