Mirror, Mirror

I wanted to add the Aphrodite mirror to my Battle Morale movie SO BAD last year! ...But I COULDN'T, because every time I tried to make it transparent, THIS happened!

No joke, every time I edited this picture and set the picture to transparent canvas, it always came out as a gray canvas instead!

It only occurred to me this past month that this is because this picture of mine was a screenshot from the Poptropica mobile app on my phone... And I can't turn mobile pictures transparent the way I can turn desktop pictures transparent.

...But this time, I decided that I was gonna find a way to make this mirror transparent so that I could use it in THIS movie. No matter what. ...I tried TEN different crazy and complicated techniques to make this transparent, and it took me literally all DAY! (Or should I say all afternoon; I spent the morning on homework.) ...And there were a lot of times I wanted to give up and say "What's the use? I'll NEVER get this right."

...But I finally did it. Now I have 2 mirrors to use in my movie: This one, and the mirror that showed up in my last movie. I finally found a way to make them BOTH transparent and ready for animations. -Mission Accomplished!
