The only problem with applying Photoshop-type filters to your swfs is that
it rasterizes the symbol that you apply the filter to which increases the
file size... my guess is that that is the reason why MM has stayed away from
filters to truly keep Flash a vector-format program.

Jeremy -

It doesn't look like Flash 5 supports Photoshop, although LiveMotion
does. If you're after this kind of effect, you could knock out the
filtered SWF with LiveMotion, then use Load Movie in Flash to bring in
the goodies.
