Copy-Pasting

[czoka]

Hmmmm I never came to a situation where I needed this solution before...ok here's the deal


-I typed up something in photoshop 6
-deleted the background layer
-gave it some internal shadowing and lightning
-I resterized the layer
-selected the letters only with magic select
-copied the selection

-pasted it in the flash mx

BUT what got pasted in was the lettering w/o the effects just the plain colour and with a white background....

now my question is is there some specific background colour (like pink in some apps) that I can choose so the background wont show when I import/paste it in flash

any other suggestions on how to do this...?

thanx in advance guys

Wouldn't be better just to save the picture from Photoshop as a .png or a .gif with a transparent background and then import it into flash that way?

yeah my friend at school just suggested the gif option to me this morning and it worked
thanx for your reply anyways...
