Needless to say-THAT ROCKS!!

Unfortunatly it's too big to use here.

Any way to compress something like that?

Question 2-Where does one acquire "moving" avatars?

You can search the web for animated gifs.



I'd be curious if existing ones could be resized. I believe you can make them with Microsoft GIF Animator. 50x50 pixels and 6K max file size makes it tough here...

It's basically like any other animated thing.

they are called Gif98a ( I think )

That's some cool stuff guys. The urinal one is mesmerizing. Don-I like yours-but I always have to scroll quickly when my kids are around. I just don't want to answer any questions. Thom's still sets the standard, but again, quick scroll time.

I thought I was having fun by playing with still photo-shoped images.

Thanks, Stijn. Wasn't for Pelican, but maybe I'll switch later...

edit- problem, it's over 12K now. Any way to crop to to 80 without losing resolution?
