Your lineart is great suzq. Coloring in Flash is very easy... I taught myself!
If you want to "cheat" (I did this in my drawings), you can take the colors directly from the real picture and use them. And if a color fades into another color, go to the Color swatches toolbar thing and look at the bottom. look to the left, and you'll see the white-to-black gradient. When you select that, a bar comes up in the toolbar above color swatches. There, you can change the color, or even set new gradient points... Basically, I learned more messing around with Flash than the teacher told me in 6 months. I hate my Flash MX class. We're on outdated software, and the teacher makes me help the other people if he can't help them...
Wow that went off topic quick. Anyway, just mess around. One of the problems I had was the paintbucket not working. I forget now how I got around that. I think I did all of the lineart, and then deleted the layer with the picture I was tracing. Then somehow it worked. You may not need to do this...
