# No.
They had to remove all gif-support or it wouldn't fit on one dvd any more.

# They use dvd-5's

# If you're using Windows you can still do that in a roundabout sort of way.
But I vaguely remember you posting a mac desktop in that ridiculous challenge a while ago.

# yes indeed
i've given up trying

edit: i've found a way
open the gif in quicktime
save as a .mov
in ps open mov with frames as layers
done

# You'd probably have to convert the gif to MOV or whatever, and even then it might turn out a bit dodgy.
Not sure it's worth it.

# no it won't if you're on a mac

# If it doesn't appear on the menu
just type the name in full "Mygif.gif" and press load

I don't know why it should do that on a mac - oh well

# Have you tried to renaming the file from . gif to .mov
see if that works

# yup
but the 'save as mov' in qt seems to work
so i'm happy

# but if i'm only going to end up drawing cocks on the layers and reoptimising it
i can live with that :)
