ALSO, make sure you can see your work area in the main stage. it's very
posible that the images in your movie clip ended up in some far corner when
you pasted frames into the main timeline. to remedy this, just unlock all
layers in main timeline, onion skin all, select all and move stuff around
until you can see it. kind of a pain, but worth it.
