    Yes Avid works with PNG. I import them daily. Check your import settings.

    Could you define “all messed up”? I’m guessing you forgot to check “invert existing alpha” when you imported the files. Otherwise, you may have interpreted pixel/aspect ratio incorrectly. PNGs are a darling to work with in Avid. 🙂
