Here's an animation of a kid I modelled years ago (POV-Ray ver 3.1e)...to
this day unfinished.  I came across it on a dusty section of my harddrive
and it gave me a chuckle.

On mozilla, and I bet a lot of newsreaders this just appears as junk. I 
didn't know what base64 encoding was so I did a google and found a util 
to decode it. Anyway here is the decoded version of your anim that 
should show up in all newsreaders.

I see base64 is the standard used for sending binary attachments via 
email, now I just feel stupid for not knowing this.

No reason to feel stupid -- you used the Web Interface and, 
understandably, expected it to be compliant. When Thorsten made it, he 
used a Macintosh newsreader that worked with it; he couldn't know it 
wouldn't work elsewhere. He's fixing it now.
