Is your grass vector?

Anyone can do it - it's just a stroke shape tweened with easing in and out - then I placed several
instances of them on the stage - some flipped horizontal.

Does anyone know how to take an image of grass and make it look like it's blowing in the wind? I've seen images bent in directions before, just don't know how.

Please help.

If your grass is a bitmap - then my FLA won't help you anyway. You can't manipulate bitmaps like
that in flash - your only options are to re draw it in flash with vectors or use Anime Studio's
Bones and Warp Image features (awesome!!!) - check it out at www.e-frontier.com. Then import it into
flash as an image sequence.

hmmm I get an error trying to open your fla file :-(

My grass image is not a vector image. I'm guessing it has to be to make this
type of effect? I do want it to look somewhat like what you have, only my
grass has been mowed a lot more ;-)
