/* How do I go about upgrading from Animator Pro 1.3 to Animator Studio Release
1? */
Hi Lawrence. I saw your post, and I thought I'd throw out a bit of philosophy
on Animator Studio regarding the age-old "upgrade" mentality. As incredible as
Animator Studio is, long time users will note that there are several key
features not available in this new product which are in Animator Pro. FWIW, in
my opinion, AStudio does not replace ANI, but supplements it. Astudio bring
higher bit images to the table, sound synch functions, new file formats, VBasic
dev tools… but it does not have the pallete power nor the POCO interface of
ANI (for starters). These two tools are a powerhouse used together, but the
crossover does not warrant abandonement of ANI. Quite the opposite. Having
exploited POCO for a while, ANI has some incredible tools in it found nowhere
else. Exploit your current investment too. -dave
