This worked great but what if I want to load the movie on the second level? Here is my example, I have an image loading on the _0level for the background. I then have a video that I would like to...

My schooling is a BFA in design/photography.
Got into web design about two years ago.

I really like the compass idea. There is so much you can do with that. I am not real familiar with your style and how busy you like to get in your design. You can put a stream on the background also...

I have PS 6 so that isn't a problem, but I was reading some of the things it fixes and it doesn't seem like what I need is there. For now I guess I will have to use both 5.5 and 6.

Thanks to everyone who tried to help. I ended up reloading ps 5.5 on my machine and it worked fine. I will have to check out the patch (6.0.1) at the adobe site.
Maybe this was something that needed...

I love ps 6 but let me tell you I just spent about 2 days and a lot of time on a problem I had in ps 6. I ended up reloading 5.5 and using that to do what I needed to do.

It is when I import it into flash that I only see the background transparency. I may have to play around with the greys in the alpha channel before I save it to get the effect I want. Or I can just...

When you fill your object with the gradient you then go to
the bottom right hand corner of the tool box and click on that tool. Click on the object and drag the gradient where you want it. Remember...

I checked out your site and everything seemed to work fine for me. I am also a mac user and it worked. The only thing that was tricky was the entrance page. It took awhile to come up so at first it...

One of the best ways to ensure a good photo is to scan it in at a higher resolution, then in a photo editing program like Adobe Photoshop bring the resolution of the photo down and fix by sharpening...

I just remembered where I saw the info for transparent background movies. It was on the Macromedia site.

Good Luck

The background of a Flash...

I know there is a way to make the background of your flash movie transparent. I haven't tried it so I am not sure if it will work the way you want it to. I believe it was on one of the messageboards...
