Well I have a short sprite GIF animation (it's a running animation of a sprite) saved on my computer. It has a transparent background. When I imported it to the library, all the frames went together as one and the later frames lost their color. I tried doing this all over again but without the animation being transparent, but the color loss was still there. How am I supposed to get my GIF onto flash while still maintaining the same look? Help is very much appreciated. ^_^ (I'm using Flash 8 Pro btw)

Shouldn't just dragging and dropping the image onto the stage work by splitting the images up and putting them on individual frames on the timeline?

Yea, that's what I always do, but eh:

:sweat: I figured it out on my own... sorta.

Strangely, it was only the animation I made that was malfunctioning in flash, and not other animations found on other sites. So I'm just gonna use premade stuff instead of causing lots of trouble for myself. Thanks for trying to help though! ^.^
