Hi peeps!!

I need some help trying to create a jpeg from a movie. Basically what I have is a movie where the user can see a triangle. This triangle has three movie clips (one at each corner) and the user can just move these movie clips to create another triangle. What I want to do is take a ‘snapshot’ of the new diagram and save it as a jpeg (just like how you can do a printscreen and then save it). Is this possible at all in Flash???

Any suggestions guys?

Thanks in advance…=)
