Terry: Thanks for the reply to the GIF problem. >>As an aside, you might get better quality with similar compression ratios using compressed TIFFs instead of GIFs.<< Have you try to render in 3DSr3 to *.TIF or *.TGA w i t h o u t using the "compression" option in 3DS? I found out that the majority of the time by using PKZIP compression software, you get almost 46% ratio than with the LZW compression (20-30% ratio) used in TIFFs (I don't know what Targa uses) THIS VARIES from image to image.
