I am trying to get my images to fade in and out using flash mx.
I cam get 1 image to fade out, how do I create a string of images one fades out the next fades in? I would appreciate any help.
:rrg:

put each fade in and fade out motion tweens on their own layers. then space them apart. Do not, and I repeat, do NOT make any motion tweens until the image is first converted to a symbol. If you don't, you will create a mess that will cause major headaches.
If you miss the step and end up with something called "tween1" or something, delete the layer and start again.

If you don't want to do motion tweens, they could be alot of work. You could use actionscript to do the same thing.

That's how I do it. build classes, that attachMovies, and run timed alpha tweens in loops using setInterval. Easy if you know actionscript well.

But I'm guessing timeline motion tweens are better in the realm of possibilites. :)
