Hi,

I recently designed a looping animated black-transparent gif for my web 
design page. It's a 3D text logo with an inverted "watery" reflection. 
It animates perfectly in all versions of Netscape (Including 4.0), 
however, in MSIE 3.02, 1 of the 5 frames seems to be shifted 1 pixel to 
the right, and another seems to be vertically compressed by 1 pixel. In 
all of my other animation programs it works fine. I am not sure if this 
problem occurs in MSIE 4 (Could someone please test?) I am wondering if 
it has something to do with the large palette (99 colours) or the frame 
translations that I coded in Gif Construction Set.

I rendered each of the frames in POVRAY before shrinking them in 
Paintshop 4, assembling them in Gif Construction Set 32, and saving them 
in Animagic 32 (to lose that annoying GifCon text field.)

The gif in question is at Fluid Web Designs: http://Fast.to/Fluid
(http://members.tripod.com/~fluidweb/fluid.gif). I appreciate any 
criticism on the image or my site in general, whether constructive or 
not!

Thanks in advance,
Pete Jacobsen
