graphics for flash game

[Nim]

Which is the best way to create graphics for a flash game?

Flash itself creates scalable graphics so: should I use Adobe Illustrator for scalable graphics (svg) or just photoshop (exporting to png or smth)?

How can I get the best result ?

Both. Depends which kind of graphics.

If you are talking about big ones, like background, go for pngs-jpg. (experience: i sued once vector shaped images for Background in my 2d platform game. I used cashAsBitmap for details like grass. Pretty useful!)
If you are talking about a button, an icon, a spaceShip, images that repeat itself in a short time, a menu, whatever small, use vector-illustrator:rabbit:

Normally I just create the graphics in Flash. However I know some people use Illustrator because of better vector control.

Photoshop has it's place as well for more detailed work.

Why big images like background (in a platform game for examble) should be png-jpg ?

Vector images (illustrator-flash) are in fact dots connected together by a line, and with a filling. Bmp images(photoshop-jpeg-png) are pixels. Its faster for flash to process (big) images in pixels than dot-by-dot images(vectors).
Flash must calculate every dot, line and filling each time they move. Its faster with pixels.

Still, you can choose whatever format you want. because flash calculate only once the render of the image.
Moving, and big, jpeg-png is better.
OR
Moving,
1.vector-illustrator images, but with the filter cache As Bitmap (see the quality issues)
2.bmp
