Hi there Jeremy, I've got it too AGAIN...2nd time this year :( Anyway, a number of people have asked for a moving picture lib (small) to allow easy picture displays of moving pics similar to animated gif. It has to have compression however, because a lot of small gifs still add up to one heck of a large file download which people dont want and they dont want to have to tell their users to download a huge file either, and they dont want to have to pack a huge file with their product if it's part of their program. There's an animated gif thing in the archive but it doesnt seem to work with compression, which is really vital to having something like this be a practical addition to a program. Take care, Al And, good luck with your Euphoria programming! My bumper sticker: "I brake for LED's"
