Alpha in CG???

[kdennis]

I created a lower 3rd banner in PS7 with alpha and saved it as a tif. The banner loads without a problem but the alpha doesn't seem to exist.

I check the banner by pulling into AfterEffects and thealpha worked perfectly.

Any Ideas?

I am thinking that you have to turn the overlay swtch on in the properties screen for the graphic. That is accessable with the edit button. This may be obvious but I am new here as well.
