How to make the photos clickable? - Scrolling Photos Loaded Dynamically with ActionScript 3

Hello - I am a novice to Flash and Action Script but found your instructions easy to follow on the scrolling photo tutorial. Worked great, however, I would like to also be able to link from each of my images. Can you please explain how to do this. Here is the link to the file I setup. <br>  http://clarkcommunicationsgroup.com/clark/scrolling_photos/gallery.html

RIP Playhouse









The original owners of our house built a playhouse for their daughters, who must be my age! We painted it inside (well Raymond painted inside) and out and put in a new floor 5 yrs ago when Julia was diagnosed as something fun for her. Over the years it has been a grocery store, beauty salon, restaurant, club house, and baby nursery. It was time to take her down as she had become so rotted and infested none of us like to even go in there anymore. So we took her down on Sunday. The girls have big plans for a summer stage with lights on the decking....until we get a new shed.

the wonderfile, "as seen on tv"





Thank you Aunt Gina for the Wonderfile. Obviously the need to organize things is genetic, I mean how many 8 year old are excited to have a wonderfile! Actually Avery was jealous. Julia already has things "filed." Who needs a wii when you can have a wonderfile!

mystery photos

Dick gave Alex and old camera to add to his collection in his office. Its probably from the early 80's. Alex was teaching Julia how to use it etc....he thought she broke it because it wouldn't snap a photo....turns out there was film in it...from when who knows.....its getting developed right now, the suspense is killing me!

MRI day thru Julia's eyes




I brought our small camera for the MRI. I told Julia in case she was bored and wanted to take photos, she looked at me like I was nuts. But as we were leaving she asked for the camera and took some photos....an MRI day through her eyes.

cookies for kids

Julia came home from school on Friday announcing that her and some friends at lunch decided they wanted to have a bake sale and sell hair braids on Sunday. Well, after we talked she realized Sunday was too soon and that we needed to wait for warmer weather. Then I remembered a foundation called cookies for kids, where you can hold your own bake sell and donate the money to cookies for kids which funds research for all types of pediatric cancers. Think the Alex's Lemonade Stand of bake sales. So we are planning one...for May when Glad will match all of their donations. Calling all bakers and helpers out there!! Her MRI is tomorrow. Keep us in your thoughts.
