    Okay, I'm making another game on flash (the first came alright according to everyone who has seen it) but the main problem with it was the file size, waaaaaaaaay too big (9.6 meg) some people have problems streaming it. Now my question is: How can i keep the file size limit small? One problem was the images I used (bitmaps) there great for quality, bad for size, so part from using bitmaps format, what just as good as a bitmap file format that has all the quality but just a smaller file size? ^_^

      PNG ( Portable network graphics) are way better then bitmap images. PNGs are designed for the internet and to be small size, so you'll be much better off with them.

      And please please please never use jpegs.
