When did art get so complicated? I am making web graphics and in the beginning .gif was fine , you don't have to embed anything ..ya just post it and it works. As I am becoming more skilled .gif isn't working for me anymore ... a simple animation with transitions ect. ends up being almost 5MB . (try moving that around the web!) I know switching to .avi will solve the file size problem , but is there a file type that will also play when posted without additional programs ..I cannot stand a frame with playback controlls on my graphics !

Also where is a good site for uploading monster files?
