RE: FLASH: Animated GIFs and Flash

[JGL]

I think Waynes answer was appropriate and tactful and humorous.

I don't see a problem with this at all.


Why do I feel this way?


If you look in the back of the flash manual in the index under 'gif' . . .

the answer is there.


Just goes to show you that you should try and figure the answer out yourself

before posting - especially something so obvious - that one is in the Flash

Manual!


At least he answered the question!


>This wasn't a stupid question Wayne.

The hell it wasn't!


Remember:

*Be sure to explore the manual and/or some 'on-line resources' before

submitting a question.


Thank you,

jgl
