Flash file size help?

I am having a bit of a problem with my Flash animation that
I am working on for my computer animation class at school...
I worked on it last night, and put it on a disc. The file
size was 602 kb. Then, I took it to school, worked on it
some more (added to it), and now the file size is 593
kb!

It shurnk! Even though I added to it! Ack! 0_o'

Dos anyone know why this is? Im a little worried, so I gave
the *shrunken* one a different name, just in case something
is wrong with it.

If anyone can explain to me why this happened to my file, I
would really appreciate it. :)

thanks in advance!

Well, I think it's just because Flash is a bit
unpredictable. :)

Bah! I already asked you, Luke! That answer isnt good
enough, I want to know why it does that!

Probably has something to do with which scene it was saved
on. If you saved while working on a different scene, it
might not have to read all the graphics from another
scene--leaving them out of the picture, even though it's
aware of them. I'm relatively certain it has something to
do with the library.

Hmm, okay. I thought maybe it had something to do with
grouping. Like if you group lots of things, you change the
file size. Why wouldnt it read everything though?

*scratch head*

And why didnt you just tell me this whe I asked while we
were talking instead of making me look like an idiot? ;)

way anyone who had an idea would notice. :D It's a sweet
thing I do for my love :D

Lust Incarnate: Perhaps the version of the Flash program
differs on the two places you've worked on the file. I don't
know if Flash files are run through a compression algoritm
prior to save but that could be it.
