One way might be if there are "Layer Effects" applied around the borders.

Just a hunch, though.


Have you had much experience in making buttons in Flash yet, though? If

you're relying on pixel-based images for major artwork then you may have

resizing issues in most browsers -- Flash's own artwork scales easily, but

if the artwork is based on pixels then it needs to be resampled at runtime,

and that isn't quite as neat.


Your call, though....
