make the stick and paste it to every frame and trace over it.
OR use the same stick in the first and last frame of the move and just draw the between frames.
As long as you start and end with the same size it wont look very terrible.

Use the grid-tool.

ITS TUT MAKING TIME
First, you make a stick man going to the other side of the screen (simple)
Redrawing the stick can lead to resizing.
To fix the resizing issue, you can copy the same stick into every frame. The problem is that it makes the animation look lazy, it is apparent that you copied the same stick each frame.
To fix the copying issue, just draw over the stick again, tracing it, but leaving the original image of what you are tracing in the frame. The stick stays the same size and the animation looks efforted (if that's a word.)
I did this with easytoon, I do not have flash

hey that's a really good idea if you want to make an animation of nothing but a static image moving aimlessly around the screen

no, your just an idiot.
use onion skin, a grid, or just go to pivot to keep your sticks from resizing.

Is this not obvious, Ctrl+# puts grid on then put onion skin on and your set.
