hi Charles,

so, if i understand you correctly, you have a series of images and
turn them into a single SWF, one per frame?

you don't actually need the library tag if you don't want to pace the
images on stage with actionscript later on. just remove it from around
the clip-import tags. i don't know why flash crashes, but that should
eliminate one potential cause. setting the version to 6 shouldn't do
any harm, either, but isn't well tested -- just try it.

hth,
mark
