ADPro will allow you to resize pictures and such (as well as a GREAT DEAL more). Notice I said 'pictures'. So you'd have to get your anim into individual pictures, then process them with ADPro, then recombine them into an anim. The splitting can be accomplished by DPaint, by saving the frames in the Picture Save menu item, rather than the Anim menu. The recombining can also be done in DPaint, with the Picture Load menu. There are also good PD/shareware/commercial programs that will do the same. You'd need to decide how important the resizing and other manipulations of ADPro are to you. ADPro comes in two versions; TAD (The Art Department) which is less expensive, but might meet your needs, and ADPro (Art Department Professional), which has more image processing functions and allows batch processing if you have ARexx, but is more expensive. I'd think you'd enjoy Modeler3D and Pro Motion; especially after typing in all those coordinates by hand! –jp–seattle–
