Fading a picture in/out

[Phayre]

Hey, believe it or now, gasp, I'm actually for realz working on Ember Sky. However, I want to fade a picture in, then wait, then fade it out again. The only way I've found ends up choppy-- is there an easy way to do this without changing the transparenct every .1 seconds or something?

Move picture.  set the transparency it changes to, set the time it takes to fade out/in.  You can do some pretty badass stuff fading pictures and all that good stuff XD
