Hi,

Is there a way to change an animated .gif file with, lets say 6 frames after import, into it’s own individual movie clip?  
I’ve messed around with it for a while now and can’t seem to come up with a way to convert those 6 frames to an individual MC that I can apply other flash attributes to.  
Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks!
