I understand that there is work underway to create an animated png format. Does anyone know who's doing this work and how it's going? Since I am in the US and use GIMP for all my graphics, I'm subject to litigation if I create gifs with GIMP. -- Until later: Geoffrey [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm afraid there will be more problems with W2K than there were with Y2K...

We spent hours trying to figure this one out.

Re: how do i view my animated gif in gimp
I stand corrected, png will not do animations but transparency pngs can be view not with netscape but with mozilla (the future netscape 5) it's fairly stable and small 5MB or so. www.mozilla.org Chuck Wandered Inn wrote: Raoul Boenisch wrote: On Sun, 27 Feb 2000, Charles R.
