Flash Billboard

I'm looking for a flash billboard to look somewhat like the one on this site.

http://www.newscorp.com/

I really like the transition effects. I can't find any and I'm not too good with actionscript. I found this on the internet but I'm not sure how to get it on my site.

Thanks!

This is just my opinion (even though I'm a Flash Developer) that Billboard takes too long to load and this might lead to people getting bored and leaving. It's nice though don't get me wrong.

I have to agree with Strider. Flash is always nice, but it should be kept to a minimum on sites, if it would even be needed. The only good use for flash on the web is games.

That billboard is definitely for movies, music ads. Its a multimedia site I'm building. But, there is a non flash version for the bandwidth impaired

I modified a lot of the code. It loads in less than 1 second on my connection here for that type of site.
