# that's
lovely, but probably needs a bit of optimising/resizing before the dialuppers get home! it's a wee bit on the large side!

# oh yes
aim for 150K please (make it smaller, and drop a couple of frame)

# um,
aim for a 100k filesize is more amenable to boardage.

# I am -
smaller than 100k for anims please - at least think of people on dialup and shit phhone lines like meself (current connection 34k)

# um,
with a frontpage record such as yours, no, but still, perhaps I am more empathetic to the dial up kids, still, dunno why!

# yeah
sorry, the word from the officials (well Pep) is to aim for 150K as the max limit for something to make the frontpage. 100K can be really difficult to hit if the animation's complicated
edit: to be honest I just assumed that when he started optimising it it would be about 50K, and he'd be happy with that...
