It's simpler and faster to store images in the stack. However, everything in a stack file is loaded into memory whenever you open it, so referring to them is a good option for stacks with lots of images, as that generally takes less memory since it only loads the images needed for the current card. -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World Media Corporation Developer of WebMerge: Publish any database on any Web site ___________________________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.FourthWorld.com Tel: 323-225-3717 AIM: FourthWorldInc _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
