Thanks, I got your competitive upgrade recently. The product looks very capable however I am having quite a bit of trouble getting out of the blocks. I've had this learning experience with other tools recently so I know it passes. First, however I'm having some real stability problems. Looks like WinImages does not "like" the Targa format output by Animation Master – my main animation tool. I was hoping to use WinImages to do post processing on my A:M work. Sure I can convert the file format to something else, individually or possibly with a batch processor but what can you tell me about how I might resolve the problem more directly. The machine either hangs hard or produces a GP Fault – actually I just checked and its a Win32s error: Unhandled Exception Error code 0xc0000005 FX.EXE B1C1F Hardware: Gateway P590 – 40 Megs memory Software: Windows for Workgroups 3.11 Assuming that I can get my files converted into a more compatible format (It seems to like my Fractal Designer TGAs just fine), I could not find the trick for loading a series of frames into the system (TimeLine or FilmStrip?) to processes them as a group. Frankly the paradigm has me a bit baffled. What is the conceptual work flow model for this product, particularly regarding batch processing sequences of frames produced by another system? I'll keep browsing and playing. Your pointers are anticipated however. More tutorials are needed, I think. I'm supportive of the on-line documentation approach. I know how much easier and more timely it is for you I assure you. Content is always the point though. In general, the docs look good. With 'bated breath, Bre Anderson (Xanimotion)
