# march of the pengiuns!

bah. there's an odd glitch now i've saved with a transparent background.

# That's lovely :)
Ah, now that you mention it I see the glitch. One of the frames is not disposing properly. Is this a straight export from Flash?

# i rarely go straight out of flash as i find the compression is a bit pants
i take each frame out as a png and then have a bit of code to import them into fireworks to generate the gif there
i had trouble with this anyhow (Flash seems to get confused with multi-layer graphics with effects on) then it was ok with the coloured background.
i *think* i'm hitting some weird bug...

# Hmmm
I didn't get along with fireworks at all. You don't use PS do you? Do you use the gimp?

It does look like a frame disposal issue.

# it's really odd
the same file saved without the transparency is spot on
eclectech.co.uk/b3ta/marchofthepenguins-nt.gif.html
i occasionally use the gimp but pretty much all my photo stuff is in corel photopaint, everything animated is in flash.
i only use fireworks for the gif optimisation, i've never got on with it for actually making anything.

# i will look at it tomorrow and try to work out what's happening
i've just noticed the time... oops.
good night all, sweet dreams

# aww, well as long as they're looking after it
they seem quite sociable
did you see the video from when we went to the safari park? the penguin attempting to escape nearly ended up in my ruck sack :)

i would've scooped it into my ruck sack and walked out inconspicously...yay! free penguins! one for everyone! *hands out penguins* :)

# i was very very tempted :)
i do have an adopted penguin called kilgore trout, but he lives in Argentina so I've not met him
i have a photo though!

# i'm meant to be going back to the zoo in the next week or so
so i'm hoping the penguins do some more entertaining running around for the camera :)

# the zookeepers should encourage such behaviour
by playing the Benny Hill music to them at least three times a day
