You'll need to save them as flattened "regular" png files (or .jpg
files).

You got it Jason. I'm using unflattened Fireworks PNGs when I
design
the graphics. They are huge. But I'm not sure I need to make
them
JPEGs because the swf file sizes aren't as big as I'd assume
they were
if the unflatted fireworks PNG was being loaded in uncompressed.
