Hey Adobe (Macromedia) lazy-asses. Is it really that hard? You take away the ability to smooth dynamically loaded images in at run-time by globally setting _quality = "BEST"; and then don't give us a replacement feature. Here's a nickel's worth of free advice: if you actually want developers to use your software as the 99 percent good software development platform you tout it as, allow them to do their job.

So, I've been forced to HACK loadMovie and your precious MovieClipLoader class to allow dynamically loaded graphics to be smoothed. Why you ask? When there are solutions that exist that aren't hacks? And what ever happened to the much awaited flash 9 MovieClip.forceSmoothing?

Well, for those of you who don't want to wait for flash 9, or for those of you who, say use SlideShowPro (or any other component that uses images without the loadBitmapSmoothed workaround), or for those of you who assume it should work globally if that is what you choose to do, i have the solution for you. So, without further ado, i present to you the Hypergeneric Flash 8 Run-time Smoothing Hack!
