  I’m trying to add some embedded code in my sidebar using Widgetize Anything. The resulting images which are flash elements, are showing up with weird, yellowed colors, as if they written on with a highlighter. This happens in both FF and IE7.

  check out my blog at http://www.dobovedo.com and look at the upper right. The top image should be black with a red thermometer and the bottom should be gray.

  The code is copy/pasted from the Livestrong organization. I’ve changed it a bit to move the text links around, but the SWF and related tags are untouched:

  echo'<div align="center">
