    Hi,

    I'm sick of importing images into flash and zooming into erase backgrounds. Even when I erase background in PS and import into Flash it is not super transparent so i have to re erase some background.

    1) How do I quickly delete the background in PS? Is there a quick way to do it?
    2) How do i import it into flash so i dont have to re do it as the edges are rough?

    Any help much appreciated.....

    Tnx

    Layer with transparent background in photoshop and export as .png

    Or you can create a mask for your image in flash.

    RIGHT.
    i delete the background - and just to check i put in a contrasting color behin dthe main image- and yes looks like ive cut out the image very neatly.
    Next i remove the background and save as png and transparent...

    However when i import into flash and have a black background i can see lots of white crap around the edges of the cutout image... how do i get rid of this??

    Tnx

    A big part of the problem is the black background its not very forgiving, can you post the image to see the problem, you may have to darken the pixels at the edges so it blends more with the background
