# Jesus!
That's almost half a meg! That even loaded slowly on my broadband. Please, think of the dial-uppers!

# You might want to remove the dithering
and set it to only update the bits that have changed on each frame. That should drop the filesize by a few hundred Kb!

# Is there a tutorial for this updating of specific areas of a .gif business?
It sounds fiddly and technical and very hard to do

# Dead easy in GIMP
All the frames appear as layers, and you just erase the unchanging parts of each layer.

# Not my work
But I'm sure HappyToast doesn't mind - you shopped the picture, that's the point of b3ta, it's just that the papers tend to steal pictures from here without crediting the authors.

# Oi! alienheat, you have no Email listed
so I couldn't send you this.
Swap it for your one quick before the board explodes in bandwidth hell.


75k, and thats got some unnecesary filler too.

# Gasping, dribbling...
Thanks very much indeed, Happy Toast. I got it down to 130kb. 75kb is certainly something for me to aim for!

A short, sharp lesson in .gif optimisation and still more to learn.

Apologies to all for squeezing so much width through, and particular thanks to HappyToast for the image in the first place.
