Hi Remco,

    I'm only a newbie to animation, so maybe there are others with different
solutions.
    What were your initial pov image file sizes?    I have found that this
does have a bearing on the final avi or mpeg size.
    Maybe if you reduced your pov images to around 360 x 240, created your
animation file from these images, it might be an appropriate size for
posting.

Cheers Alex
