file size issues

[Jim Curry]

As sort of "king of file sizes", my opinion is that you should keep the

folks amused while the file downloads to the point of interactivity or

at least until the "meat" of the animation begins. Keep em busy and

happy and DON'T disappoint them when the load is done. (period)

 I have yet to receive any complaints from anyone when I launch a

presentation in its final form.  As anyone who has visited my site can

atest to, most files are rather large..at least 300k.  It takes alot of

tweeking on my part to get things as I feel they should be before I

place a link to the file.  The museum right now is no where near where

it needs to be before viewing and it will stay that way until its ok. 

The wait to do anything is way to long right now without a pleasant

distraction setr up.

Bottomline:  Big files are ok is warranted.  Keep em busy..happy and

don't disappoint them when its all set to go.

Sorry about preaching here, but I had to throw my two cents in to this

discussion with regard to the discussion of this site:
