# Herman's done an excellent job making it as small as he has
but why not just post a thumbnail and link to a full colour decent size gif or better still a youtube version which would take less time to load due to it actually having compression code developed this side of 1995 AND have sound?
or if you need to post it on board push it just a touch further - same joke 150 wide instead of 175 for 254kb:

You might be asking the wrong person here, Toasty.

# why not just play by the rules like (almost) everyone else?
Jokes are more important than technique (and file size)
Yes 400k is quite small by todays standards, but you don't need to broadcast in HD to get a punchline across.
And if you do, just provide a link to a full res version like people do with pictures.

# So, who does one petition to get the FAQ changed?
Rob has deserted b3ta, the FAQ was written ages ago, and even people on smartphones can get 3g most places these days. Reply GIF & pic size restrictions would be a lot better IMHO than draconian original post restrictions, particularly when I log on the morning after a gayshift dance party...
