GIF89a was designed based on the principle of rendering images (known as frames when used for animation) to a logical screen. Each image could optionally have its own palette, and the format provides flags to specify delay and waiting for user input (not widely supported by viewers) between them. This is the feature that is used to create animated GIFs, but it can also be used to losslessly store a 24-bit RGB (truecolour) image by splitting it up into pieces small enough to be encoded into a 256 colour palette and setting up the GIF to render these with no delay on the logical screen (demo). Unfortunately, most web browsers seem to assume that this multi-image feature will only be used for animation and insert a minimum delay between images. There will be some file size bloat from doing this, especially if the encoder doesn't support LZW for patent reasons. There are very few tools around that can easily produce truecolor GIFs, and
it is rarely an appropriate format unless there is absolutely no other option.

It just doesn't seem to have any value; the style itself takes little real skill and the only thing that makes it notable is that it was done with a ballpoint pen.

Sure they may pay better, but what's the point if everyone who sees them never visits your site again?

right. I caught your meaning, which is why i posted an agry response, to imply that the seething anger is still there... just bubbling quietly beneath the surface.

I don't really mean to yell at you like that.. you know they say we hurt those we love the most?

That's kinda like if I was to go onto a message board and say that Game X is horrible when in fact the vast majority of people there love it.

You just don't.

I don't care. I don't go out of my way to be a jackass like most "OMG PC = EDVIL!~!!!!!LIBERAL HJSITSS!!!!" do. Nor do I bend over backwards to accomodate absolutely everyone. I use common sense. Like saying aboriginal, or if I know the tribe, rather than "indian". Vijay Singh is Indian, not John Bear Foot.
