Hi guys,  
I did a Flash website with 4 small company logos inside.  
The problem is: when I publish the site those logos look terrible, and originally those JPGs are big and goodlooking. I even tried to modify the BMP settings in Flash but it doesn’t improve. I guess it happens cos Flash has to shrink the original JPG before publishing, and…it’s not good at that…:  
I even tried to Trace those logos, but the file size of the SWF file gets bigger.  
What can I do to have those tiny logos look ok?  
Thanks!

Ale

import as bmp or anything else not compresssed, coz flash will recompress your already compressed jpg, or rightclick/properties your jpg in flash and check the compression settings individually for each one
