So far I have managed to paste pictures to Flash, but I am having trouble modifying them. I want to create a cartoon version of this pic, by using it just as the background and drawing over it like tracing paper. But whenever I try to draw over it, the picture either moves or what I have just drawn over it disappears. I have tried using it as a symbol but that doesn't help. I am having to use loads of layers to make this work, which only confuses it more. I have kind of given up on drawing with Flash, and tried doing it with Paint and Art Rage, then pasting it as an image to Flash. However even this doesn't work as neither of them are compatible with Flash!! What should I do? This is very frustrating.......
