Sir Spandex it is! Ok I almost understand the sorenson codec. I am going to look for a sorenson 3. My keyframe options are set for a default 5 and I haven't messed with them yet. I have been using the default Microsoft 1 video codec from Poser. I will experiment with image files and uncompressed .avi. I agree, looking back some of the scenes would have a geater impact with a background, I am working on that. The Bryce backgrounds I used in this cartoon were each about 10 seconds long and took around 5 hours each to render. I then imported those as avi into poser and rendered as a sketch. As far as changing the name, I was going to hustle home and work on that tonite but I got caught up in this upload frenzy, I hate that, I feel all bug eyed. So, with that it's on to this weeks episode, "Sir Spandex"! AJ
