well, i can help you... i teach flash at a University...you can work on ur graphics first in photoshop (blur it, apply filter, tweak the contrast, etc) and just save it as .gif (be sure to delete the background layer first) then open ur flash, file, import... to ur stage or library... or u can simply create ur own...either in photoshop or in flash..does't matter... have fun!

What do you mean with pixelized? If you import pixelbased images they will be pixelbased images in Flash. If you import vector images they will become vectorised in Flash.

You can vectorize simple bitmaps in flash
