I'm making something for my site where you can design your own character. I am trying to set it so when you select a hair style, it'll change the hair style on the person(I already know how to change the color and stuff). How do I do that?? I thought I could do it so it would switch the movie clip with the design of the button you press to get it to change the hair...Please help!

the easy way... ?
put each hair style on its own Frame in a MovieClip, then when you press the Button simply use a gotoAndStop to that Frame. ;)

I still cant' get it... I put on one of the hair styles this:
-----
on (press) {
_root.hairdesign.gotoAndStop("Scene 3", 7);
gotoAndStop("Scene 2", 1);
}
-------------------
so, the movie clip called hairdesign should change to the hair style I put in Scene 3, frame 7...But it won't work. :(
