Flash Template Glitch SOLVED!

No matter what I do I can't get my imported image to look 100% right.

There are 2 parts of the image that are not aligning correctly. There is nothing wrong with the image
itself before I import it and it is still off even before I compress it.

I've tried every format, jpg, gif, png with the same result.

I am using pilihp's 2 click template

Here is a screen shot of what I am talking about.
Can anyone help me?

Thanks

yeah I think it has to do with a container clip squishing the image by 1 pixel but I'm quite lazy so I never figured it out

Ha, thanks man, I figured it was something like that. I don't know the solve either.

Anyone else?

I've had this too, though I never fixed it. First thing I'd try is making the image a few pixels bigger, might work

Thanks dude, l'll try that

OMG! This is a sure print man! Looks great!

Thanks Tony, but as we both know, nothing is a sure thing.
But I definitely feel good about it.

I've had this problem myself before. If you figured it out I'd love to know what you did to correct it.

I plan on asking all the flash pros at work tomorrow, so I'll let you know what they say.

Cool, thanks ;)

Ok here is the solution for this annoying glitch.

Go inside the designMC movie clip.

Click on it and under the properties menu, under display,
click the checkmark on "Cache as bitmap"

You will only see this option if you are publishing for flash 8 or later.
right now the template is set to publish in flash 6.
