Must it be trotting? I fully admit that I don't understand the subtle differences between a lot of the horse's gaits ... trotting, cantering, galloping, left lead, right lead, etc. Dunno if it helps but, there's a horse galloping animation posted on the Fun Stuff pages. There are also some pz3 animations (horse walk.pz3 and horse trot.pz3) on the Poser3 CD in ... Cool Stuff in Here!/Sample Files/Animations

Hmmm ... I thought a-GIF playback was a function of machine video speed (?? to some extent). Every frame is displayed in an a-GIF ... as opposed to an AVI where frames are skipped to keep sound and video in sync if the playback is slow. Another drawback to a-GIFs is that they are in only 256 colors. This is not a problem if your intent is posting the a-GIF on the web as a quick preview for others. Image quality can suffer if you use substantially more colors than that (ie lots of gradient changes).

Great idea! Thanks! This will now be my #2 stop at PFO (#1 being Poser Forum, naturally). Gaius
