I want to place a Logo/ad in front of content, there are ways to do it but the problem with them is that they use JS show/hide method. What happens is that the content doesn’t load while user is watching the logo/ad, which results as double waiting for the user first for the logo/ad and then the actual flash content loading.
So I was thinking if there is a way that a logo/ad could be displayed and at the same time flash content continues to load at the back end.
I didn’t ask for a loader that continues to appear until at the back end flash content is done loading, because I found only one script that was able to do so using Jquery but it was designed to work with fixed pixels while my flash content is based on %ages

Note: Sorry for providing blogspot link but JsFiddle is not an option for a person living in Afghanistan with 5KBps but still if you feel that I am missing something please let me know I will edit it and try my best to provide as relevant question as possible ^^
