Matt,
Here's what I know about Shape tweening, It must not be an object in the
library. So if it is you will need to break it apart (Ctrl-B) then perform
your tween. Also the more pieces you have more the computer is going to have
a problem with placement. So what I would suggest is grouping (Ctrl-G) your
items so you have on solid image in the beginning and once solid at the end.
this will give you a cleaner transition. Try to make the images as solid as
possible if you have little holes you will want to fill them.

Hope this helps,

Jester
