Arachne does not have the capability of using enough memory
for such HUGE resizing of animated GIFs

aaaaa.gif is actually 100x100 but is being resized to 600x10000
<img src="LuckyDip/otherpics4journey/aaaaa.gif" width="600" height="10000">

button19.gif is actually 20x20 but is being resized to 600x2000
<img src="LuckyDip/moreanigifs/button19.gif" width="600" height="2000">


RightClick (or Shft+enter), on the image itself to see it without resizing.
