Yeah, there's the file-size issue with which to deal. Also, sometimes if the pans are too smooth, they strike most viewers as being too slow. As a result, it's always a delicate balance when it comes to creating visual media.
I appreciate the compliment, but it doesn't mean that much considering that the year's only begun, there are still plenty more days for funny comments. Thanks for the rep as always though. :hatsoff:
I must give you kudos on the smooth pans on images within that GIF you created. I find that many of the GIFs created by even seasoned Photoshop veterans tend to have image-pans that are too fast and jittery.
