How would "snap" or allign a picture so that over the frames the picture is in the same place? i tried allign in flash but it appeared to do nothing.

You can either copy then paste in place, use keyframes, copy the frame or just extend the frame. All will work but 'align' is for positioning things inexact places relative to the canvas.

Umm, scorpio theres a easier way.
Go to windows then bring up the align window, make sure the align to stage box is checked (or pressed in) then select the item you want to align.
Click align to vertical center, then click horrizontal center. (make sure that all of whatever you slelected is on the same layer)
do this for all of your frames.
Also if you dont want them in the middle drag the onion skin marker tool (above the timeline) over all of the frames and click the edit multiple frames button. (next to onion skin buttons) then highlight all your frames, drag the mouse selection over them then drag to where you want them.
Ok so now that i wrote it, it doesnt look faster then scorpios but i guess its helpfull to know right?

first let me thank both of you guys for the prompt respones, the second way was easier and worked better, i was referring to something being stuck the canvas.
