Yeah, that 18K "BladePro" image is a little much I guess... as noted in my
original post, I put this together in a hurry, "caveat emptor" as it were,
and didn't spend any time tweaking anything. Most of the icons
themselves are about 2-5K in size, a little more reasonable I'd say.
Though still on the big side.
Haven't tried the ULead product yet, though I do run images through the
GIF Wizard online utility occasionally. I don't find that one makes a great
difference, assuming I've taken some care creating and saving my images
in the first place. It might shave off 100 bytes here and there, that's
about it. Particularly since I upgraded to Paint Shop 5.0, I find my GIF
images turn out pretty darn compact as it is, generally. Except for that
18K "BladePro" header :)
