I'm having a helluva time trying to figure out the syntax for smoothing of dynamically loaded png's. It's such an easy function for as3, but seems very complicated in as2. Any help would be greatly appreciated. If anyone could help me figure out how to wirte the code and where to place it would be an extreme help. Thank you,
here's my code courtesy of Lee Brimwell:
