How do I do this?

Eugenia and all the other geniuses out there, if you go to my website you can see my videos. I have finally found the .wmv to .swf converter program to get my videos to the web. Yes I am an idiot!

Go to the contractors page and then click on the first crab you see. Click on Honey Do Homeworks and watch the video. Why are some of the still images, the Honey Do logo and the 3-D renderings wider than the rest of the inages? I am a newbie as you know to this, and have exhausted all my ideas as to why.
HELP!!!!

Well, I'm no genius, but until one arrives (which they will) go to your pictures on the timeline and click on the Event Pan/Crop button on the picture, right click on the the picture in the window that opens, and then select 'Match Output Aspect.' That will match the picture aspect ratio with the project aspect ratio. You can then use the keyframes and scaleable box to do further sizing and effects to your liking. I think it would have helped a lot in your video. Give it a try and let us know. Cin

I hereby nominate Cin as today's resident genius.

That's exactly the same answer i would have given without even watching the video. :)

I will try that! Any idea why those particular images turned out like that and many, many others did not?

Thanks Kelly, you made me smile :) I only wish it were true, but thanks for the compliment. As for your other question ronnie, it looked like you had graphics and pictures from numerous sources with various aspect ratios. Try what was suggested, and see if that won't take care of it for you. Let us know. Cin (genius for a day) ;)
