Yes - I agree with Markus --- I like 4 months. It will give us plenty of
time
to produce a praiseworthy animation. This will also tie-in nicely with the
stills comp.
Also, it might be kinda fun to have one topic for both stills and
animation....
One could look at the interpretation of a still picture (and then click)
to see the interpretation in animation. (interesting ????)
However, the still and animation topic will not be concurrent on completion
date
which should not make a difference. If the web page is designed properly,
one will
see the evolution of this scheme.

These are only suggestion. By consolidating same topic and completion dates
for stills and animations; it should make managing the web site easier to
start with.

.....Ok,  I think animation should join in on the next topic starting after
April 30th
this will help get animation involved in the new web site. It was starting
to feel like
we were not part of it.

Thanx  ~Steve~  for keeping the this community alive.
