How to make enlarged or reduced images look good?

[jeanmarc]

So here's the deal; im trying to make an imported png image reduce or enlarge (doesnt matter which effect i try) its size and change opacity(brightness) when onRollOver...

But the reduced/enlarged image ends up looking like crap and all pixelated in its onRollOver state, so i tried to reduce the image size in photoshop and then import 2 different images - one onrollout version and one onrollover version, but this ends like looking like crap anyway (tried both move tween and shape tween)...

Ive seen websites using this effect (images changing size smoothlywhen onrollover), but i havent gotten the right look and feel of it.. how do they do it?

Maybe this effect can be done in actioscript but i dunno how in that case...

Help greatly appreciated!

can you post the fla file? also if you replaced the picture with one of the same name makesure to update the picture...but...you probably already know this.

Unfortunately i dont have a .fla to post here, but the effect i want to make is mainly that the picture enlarges itself by 30-40% when mouse is in RollOver state... this without getting the ugly pixelated effect...

Here you can find the guy that caused the problem :rolleyes: and under the entry " Dynamically loading bitmaps with smoothing in Flash Player 8" you can find a way to fix it. http://www.kaourantin.net/archive/2005_12_01_flashgraphics_archive.html
