David, I recently purchased one of your company's PAR units for the PC. The installation was easy, but I can't store TGA files on it, as ANI or STILL, without significant artifacts being introduced into the image. For example, I created white titles on a black ground in photoshop and saved the image to the PAR. When I load it back into photoship, the black around the letters has numerous artiffacts. My current settings are Q=23, BLF = 256. What am I doing wrong? I took a suggestion form Pyros Partnership tech support and created a title image with less contrast ( 6 < RGB colors > 240 ), but that didn't help. Any advice would be appreciated. Martin Kunert
