As crude as the guy above me said it, it's true, make it into a symble, and frame by frame inside the symble change it little by little, good luck!

What I would do, is make a movie clip of 1 pixel that fades out from black to white (had animate this, it will look unnatural if you tween it) And then duplicate it sever times and make it start at different delays, then, make your arrow out of those move clips (randomly placed, but still strategic, e.g make the lower half have quicker-fade ones and the top half with slower fade ones) and then you can animate that.

My websites: MayesMods | FireStorm | I'm also on almost every other website in existence, mostly under the username: andy70707 (youtube: brainiac777, eBay: 10andy70707).

Animating is the best way. Tweening usually looks like shit, so just try harder. PRACTICE
