First I tried to just drop the .png-files in iMovie and when that didn't work I changed them in Photoshop and saved them as jpegs (and tiffs and psds and ......), but whatever I do to them they never look any better then when I use the original png-files I get with "command-shift-4". /Mats >Did you change them in Photoshop AFTER you got the bad results? > >Shirley
