When published, blurred bitmaps

For some reason i imported a picture and broke it apart (right clikc, ‘break apart’ is what i mean’). Anyway, when i publish it, it becomes very blurry. Does anyone know what to do to stop this problem? Thanks

EDIT: I just figuired out that when i publish it at low quality it actually looks sharper but the rest of the SWF looks like crap. Does anyone know how to change this? I think it might just be some automatic anti aliasing that is destroying the detail the the bitmap, thanks

make sure the broken apart pic is placed on whole pixels, and it’s height and width are also whole pixels…basically the same thing you have to do to aliased text.

thx, ill try that when i get home.
