Excellent pointI quite agree. But what about a blue-footed booby?

GIF AnimatorTry Macromedia Flash, whats what I use to create Animated Gif's. You can download the trial from www.flash.com and then crack to get rid of the 30 day trial period by searching on Google for 'Flash 5 Crack'.

Just some thoughts on image compressionhopefully no-one will take this as patronising, or for that matter as definitive guidelines, it's just some thoughts.
Firstly, physical size: there's really no need to make things any wider than, say, 400 pixels, and to get on the front they'd have to be 280 max wide anyway. Sometimes bigger is worth it, but it's very rarely going to make much difference to how good something looks on the web- it's not like working with print.
Compression- I don't see any need to have any greater than 60% quality on jpeg compression, and usually lower than that is fine (again- we're only working with a message board here, it's not a design showcase).
Thirdly, on a board like this (and this is the most important point) there can be a lot of individual images. As mentioned before, there seems little need for a file size over 50k most of the time. Again, this is by no means definitive, but certainly multiple images of 250K+ is unnecessary. For the guys on a dial-up, it's a nightmare to get that amount of stuff down the pipe, and hence a major barrier to usability. Linking thumbnails to big images is, as suggested, an excellent way to make large images available without slowing the board to an unusable crawl.
As i say, just some thoughts.

Damn, I always mess up first time... anyway, here it is!
I'm sure I have seen this solo artist as the lead singer of a band somewhere before... but please click on the picture above to go to my new Beautiful Day movie (it's much better than Anneka Rice or Richard O'Brien, trust me)
Not unless you promisethat it won't have that 70's multicoloured AW intro to it.

Didn't mean to be nastyabout your stuff over the weekend. I don't really do nasty. It was just that you seemed to be taking up a lot of space with one idea. Shall we bury Anneka with the hatchet...please?

Denies it all now though.
