Which version of Xara are you using?

the latest Xara Xtreme, the cd just came in the mail... Do you recommend using exported alpha images? Or should I take the .ai route? I absolutely dislike the vector drawing tools in moho

I use Xara Xtreme too -- it's great! When I'm exporting files for Flash, I usually use .wmf files -- give me less problems for some reason. Can't do that with Moho though; for vectors, it's .ai or nothing (unless someone has found another way...?)
Exporting PNG files is also easy with Xara, but obviously this has implications where animation is concerned; I always draw images as an "exploded view" if I know I'm going to be using bitmaps -- I find it easier.
