Not without Photoshop where you can use the Filter/Noise/Add Noise feature to make the static, then import the image into Flash.

Note: Any Graphics program that can create a static look will work too.

aight, then get like 4 or 5 dif pics of it, and then just loop em right?

I didn’t know if there was any way of making random pixels -n- such with actionscript… but this way works just fine wit me =D

Yeah, just a few pics and make them random.

Or what I did once was I created one image, then created 4 keyframes.

And in each keyframe I rotated the image 1/4 of the way.

Worked well.

You probably COULD do it with AS, but that would kill the processor. So best do it with images.

I’ve made an .fla that hasn’t quite got static on it, but it’s got that old film scratchy type effect on. Just a couple of graphics and some AS…
