FLASH: 100% Black..?

[Henke Hemma]

Hey!


I have a small problem. I have begun to create a Flashed site for a 

colleague. He has sent me a bunch of TIFFs created in his SGI for me (I'm 

on a Mac), both for reference on how he wants the page to look, and to 

use as background images. I have converted the TIFFs to JPEGs in 

PictureViewer (set to best quality) and then imported them into Flash. 

The only thing I've done so far is adding buttons on top of his 

background images. The weird thing is that the right hand of his image is 

supposed to be 100% black, but when I view the page in Netscape Navigator 

4.7 it isn't completely black. I know this because I see the 100% black 

background colour in the browser behind the Flash-file, and the Flashed 

background looks kind of dark grey instead of black. If you don't know 

what I mean check the URL below. I have opened both his original TIFF and 

my converted JPEG in Photoshop and sampled the colour, and it says it is 

100% black in both cases. In my publishing settings JPEG compression is 

set to 100. Anybody knows what's wrong here, and what I can do to work 

around it?


Best regards,

Henrik Friberg
