Help needed for photo gallery

Question

Hi,
I downloaded a applet for a rotating flash photo gallery.
However, I can't see any instructions for how to modify the
actionscript...There are a few comments, but they dont seem to be
sufficient.
Here is the script a part of the gallery:
// prototype function for fixing the scaling and position of
images
movieclip.prototype.do_me = function () {
var w = 540;
var h = 400;
var k = this._width / this._height;
if (k > 1.35) {
this._width = 540;
this._yscale = this._xscale;
this._y=0-(this._height/2);
this._x=0-(this._width/2);
} else {
this._height = 400;
this._xscale = this._yscale;
this._y=0-(this._height/2);
this._x=0-(this._width/2);

sorry for the long post; basically I fairly new to flash and
not familair with actionscript at all. I figure that most of what
is need is number signifing the speeds. Which i added by removing
the curly brackets and adding a number,
i.e var maxitems=parseInt("10",10);
but I dont know how to insert my images....I've tried
various things but i only end up with empty spinning boxes.
If someone could start me off with where i put the images i
may be able to complete it myself , but the more help the better
really as I dont really have a clue and I dont know where to look
for basic knowledge on actionscript language.
Thanks alot in advance,
Liz

Have you tried in Acrobat: Tools->Print Production->Convert Color?
