Hmm...What do you mean by "i have sothink swf quicker so dat dont work"

I got Most of it except for "swf" What did you mean by that? Would that be the file type?

Anyways, the only thing that worked for me is tracing bitmap, "Breaking apart" the image or Ctrl+B didn't work for me. Perhaps that would help you?

Can't wait to see this flash.

Ctrl+B won't really help, that's more for multiple objects in one movieclip. You can't get rid of the background with Flash, but I know that a lot of image programs have a Magic Wand tool (I know Macromedia Fireworks does). With a magic wand tool, you click, and it selects everything of the color you clicked on. Maybe try downloading a Fireworks demo?

You can too!

Just do a simple trace bitmap.

If you mean making transparent sprite images, you need photoshop to erase the white background, and save it as a gif, or png.

Well i use MS Pain to cut sprite by sprite then i save it as png file then i use the old microsoft photo editor i use the tool to ride off the white or green background and safe it as a gif file.

It sounds a little complicated, but it helps if you don't have Fireworks or photoshop

Or you can just open the sprite in MS Paint and save as a PNG. I'm not sure if that will work, I can't try it cos my MS Paint got removed somehow. Anyway, good luck.
