    I'm glad you askek. Not that I know how, but I would really like to know if it's possible, if not I just wasted a few days making preparations for a flash movie that will never exist.

    Are you using the Print Screen button to do your screen shots?

    I usually open it with Photoshop when I take SShots, and it comes up fine for me~

    Same problem, works every once in a while for me, but if I just move around the window that I pasted the screenshot in it messes it up.

    It should work, it's just a normal screenshot that basically copies the whole screen. Then just go to your paint program and hit Ctrl + V and it should be there.

    take a screen shot and it should be fine for a moment, then take a screenshot inside of the graphics program and you should be fine.
