A 3000x200 Firefox Persona image with only 3 layers needs to be less than 300K, but mine comes out at 1.8mb using the APNG editor. Actually, only a very small area changes in my animation, but I guess you must use the entire background area for each layer? Is there any way to make smaller files?

I would like a browser that doesn't eat all my ram and take 4 hours to start. What is with devs today? In Devs mind, "should I add pretty colors, or should make this run better" HMMMMM I think Ill add colors instead of making my software work well. Geshhh Who gives a crap about animations!!!

The idea and set up are great, don't get me wrong. I just think these things need major support.

Keep up the development!

Super interested in the SVG extensions feed. An approach where an external SVG editor talks with yours. Great work. Super interested in the SVG extensions feed.

It's unfortunate that the PNG group chose not to make APNG an official extension, but that doesn't make it wrong to use. John: PNG is an open format that can be extended by anyone.

Really... but since it was "rejected as an official extension", doesn't that makes the format "unauthorized" to be published? in other words: doesn't that makes it impossible to be used? and also (since I'm a web developer and i do believe in W3C standards) this makes it impossible for the extension ever be recommended as a Standard from W3C, right? Anyway... You have my full support! I do love the .apng idea! Thanks I loved the idea!!!

MNG had many shortcomings, don't get me wrong; I'm just wondering how APNG compares. Honestly the lowest point of MNG was its very low-tech toolchain, and until APNG sees broad adoption (by at least one major vendor like, say, Adobe uses it) this will be a sticking point for the APNG format as well. The next lowest point was that the file sizes weren't all that small because it was lossless (unless you reduced color depth or something); does APNG give better file sizes? This spam filter is annoying, take 3 here. Is APNG actually superior to MNG in any aspect other than falling back to looking like a plain PNG in older browsers?

We wait simply times starting from which there so still come at renewals. I am really times strained on the new version Firefox 3,0.
