:q: I’m still fairly new to using flash and having trouble with this one. Is there a way to import an image without having the background import with it? I’m trying to incorporate a logo and use a shape tween on it. I use Photoshop 7.0 mostly but I do have Fireworks MX. Any thoughts or a site that I can read up on this?

Thanks in advance.

i guess you could use a gif with transparent background

or copy and paste directly from fireworks
