[AccessD] Calling objects

Thanks Gustav, I think most of them are jpgs at the moment, though will 
have to check that out. Will change a few to bmp and see if it makes a 
difference.

Cheers

Hi Ryan

You didn't tell which format. You should use bmp files with lowest
possible size and colour count.
