Ed,
I've seen Cheetah help Tarzan get out of a lot of jams, but I didn't see that episode.

I borrowed it from another site' member, figured this was apropo

Somehow the cheetah reminds me of the robot girls in Austin Powers 'The Spy Who Shagged Me', just without the boobs ..and the well shaped curves..

Hmm.. now I can't see the similarity anymore. But it's a nice one Ed

I tried to upload an animated .gif file once, but it was too big I think. Is there a defined max size?

[Edward Tinker]

yes, just like photos, except smaller.

go to your resize part of your picture program and look at pixels instead of inches or milimeters as the times each side.

so it'd say, pixel x pixels for size, then make it 160x160, the one I did for my friend the other day was 157x140

BUT, when you go to resize a .gif file, it has to be by the right program, or the animation part won't work again. Even though smaller, there are actually multiple images stacked on top of each other, so size adds up quick.
