# Well,
I've lurked long enough, so it had to happen sooner or later...




Woo!
First anim, is it a bit big?
(and yes, I did throw them properly)
*edit* Made smaller by BAZ, thanks!

# it's ok
150KB is "large"

# It'll drop to about
50k if you reduce the colours to 16. Here: www.ucl.ac.uk/~smgxbyo/dart.gif

# Ta!
Grabbed, re-hosted and edited with credit! Thanks...
p.s. how do you drop the colours in Image-ready? It's the first time I've used it...

# There should be
an optimize panel in the top right corner with "optimize" and "info" tabs. The options are on the "optimize" tab. Funny that. You're best using something like the 2-up view to compare the original with the optimized version. Don't forget to use "Save as optimized..." to save the new version. If the optimize panel isn't there, look under the Window menu.

# Go to the Optimize palette
and adjust the settings there... If you bring up the 2-up view, you'll be adjusting the one on the right, and this way you can see how much (or little) detail you'll lose.

Selective or perceptual usually give great color reduction, and drop an extra couple of K compared to Adaptive. Also, going Lossy works well...

# Ta! (both of you!)
I did try that and I did save optimized, I obviously just didn't try hard enough and play with enough options...
*note to self* play with it more...

# I'm up to 2,296
and I haven't noted any milestones. I don't like birthdays, either.
Actually, I'm just not very observant.

# Everyone else
sorta observed for me...

# Do you reckon
I could do that for my 2000th post?

# It'll take an awfully strong arm!
And a lot of dedication...

Just think how long it'd take if you missed and hit the 1, as well...

# Could be allot better

# we used to play
2001 at university... I think you'd have REAL problems getting an anim under 150K doing that! :-)
(I helped save b3ta! Henny, Sun 5 Jan 2003, 18:50, archived)
# Actually
your anim drops to 7k if you convert it to black and white, so it could be done...

# but the board would have to be full of darts
and I just haven't got the darts to do it...
(I helped save b3ta! AzToTheRescue The arsehole formally known as Az The S slur, Sun 5 Jan 2003, 18:57, archived)
# 'tis only 34 darts...
...admittedly 31 of 'em are in the treble 20 followed by a treble 19, a treble 16 and finishing on a double 18...

It could take a while to score that in one go though ;-)
