I found if you scale your image down, via your favorite paint program,
to a size between its largest and smallest view that plan in your
Flash app then it stays looking smooth at most any level.
Many Flash developers will load in an image as large as possible
thinking they need that level quality. Then Flash has an issue when
scaling it down (even with smoothing). I usually scale all media
assets down to just below or half the target resolution before adding
them to my Flash or Flex project. Then all looks good at any scale.
This even goes for textures with text.
