I read the tutorial on the Shine Effect but I have a few questions.

1st: On the tutorial, it shows a bottle on the sample movie. I was wondering how to do that same thing instead of just using a shape.

2nd: This isn’t really a Flash question but an image question in general. How can I transfer an image to Flash and have it as just the image? Heres what I mean. If I open an image in photoshop, delete the background, and just select the image. When I copy and paste it into Flash, it has a white box around it.

3rd: Heres my last question. When I did the tutorial with the shape, I want it to do the shine effect and then bring up the shape. All it does though is do the shine effect and thats it. How can I do this?
