no it plays out as a movie from start to finish… you could make it really long … but that would just suck… Look into flash if you want them (It pains me to say that) ---

i don’t want to try and load the flash. it’s just for the band’s MS header. ---

javascript + 2 gif images? that would work, but IDk off hand how to do it. Probably easier than gay flash ---

Why not just make the .gif a bit bigger / longer and run it with the frames you said above? like, make the repeating section so long that no one will ever notice the first section repeating unless they sit there for 30min and watch the .gif? ---

Generally there are quotas say 100mb storage - 500mb bandwidth basically saying if you have 100mb of content and 5 people view it all, your bandwidth is gone… so if the file is 2mb and 250 people view it … the bandwidth is gone ---

Well, Newman, post the file. And then loop that one section for maybe 2 minutes and just compare the file size. When I said 30min, I was exaggerating 🙂 ---

Pretty sure “animated gif maker” will allow you to have multiple layers. ---

yeah, multiple layers is fine, but you can’t set up a loop schedule, i just made the gif sufficiently long, not too big at 225K… Located at [www.myspace.com/rooftopsoverbuffalo](http://www.myspace.com/rooftopsoverbuffalo) ---
