Sure. Or we could just use 24 bits for the width and height (12 bits each), and include both the bit-depth and the alt tag in a slightly simpler format: <0x1F><image record id><3-byte width+height><1-byte depth><1-byte alt tag len> Bill _______________________________________________ plucker-dev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.rubberchicken.org/mailman/listinfo/plucker-dev
