You can get some really good result using png animations. But because we are talking about a dir file that would run standalone and/or as ashockwave movie, we are afraid that it would be to heavy to handle when playing online. Does flash has the ability of compressing the sequence somehow ? We could then just import a flash movie into the dir file.
