problem with swf archive size

Hello,

 I created a banner with an static image (jpg) in the background (shared with 
all the photograms) . The only non-static part of the banner is an animated 
text. Although the background is just a 24 kb image, the resulting swf is a 
1,30 MB file, wich is too much. Is there any way to fix this? 

 Thanks in advance

Just about impossible to say how you managed that with out looking at the file.

I assume you're using Fireworks to create the animation? You might consider 
using Flash instead to create the SWF, since it would propbably render it for 
you more reliably.
