Thanks Seth I appreciate the input and yes I think I can handle that! I should have thought of that already... :-) As a note...I wasn't actually using animator I was just reducing the alpha via a repeating timer since I liked the effect better but the end result was the same problem so I think this can take care of it. Thanks again!
