I did have some transistions put in, but they were low quality so i deleted them. (you apply a transition to a button) I creadted higher quality ones and rendered the motion menus. Every thumbnail seems to work like a charm. BUT the transistions are non existant. Whats going on? I really don't want to create a sequence for every one.

From what I understand, you'd import your transition media, turn it into a timeline. Then you'd select the thumbnail, set the action when being clicked to cue your transition media. Then set the end action of your transition media (what happens when the media is done playing) to cue the start of your video.
