# shrink it a bit and crop it a bit
theres 20 pixels in from the left hand side that are not needed for the joke.

# dithering is not your friend
if it's double the allowed size, reduce the actual image dimensions.
Here, 200k version, same joke, none of the abuse

# this was discusssed t'other day
not sure Ive seen the best way to optimise animated except these were suggested..

no gradients
horizontals better than verticals
use similiar colours - frame to frame
reduce pixel dimensions
eliminate unnecessary frames
no dithering
avoid gradients and textures.

# it's utterly dependent on the animation
you can have a gradient if its not moving.
basically if its too big I just do it half size and double it up in the html
