SuperConvert (available commercially from Seven Hills and various mail order
places) has a program call Fli.Away which will take apart a .fli animation and
leave you with lots of little pictures.  Then you have to load each frame
into SuperConvert and save them back as SHR pictures.  Making an animation
from that is not easy unless you have ShowPic and set it up to do a slide
show on the pictures you have just created.  I don't know if you can make
a PaintWorks animation or not, I'm holding out for the animation program
that is built into Platinum Paint 2.0.
