Just an idea - if you're posting an animation that requires some special
codec, like Divx, it would save those of us who don't want to go hunt down
and install additional codecs the time of downloading unusable animations if
everyone posting those things would mention it in the subject line. It
doesn't help to list the additional requirement in the body of the post,
because that part doesn't become visible until after the animation file
itself is finished downloading. I'm sure there are many fine codecs
available out there, but I don't want to install any more stuff than
necessary on my computer because of the increased chances of crashes,
clashes, etc.  ;-)

Regards,
Dave
