Mr Don DeCosta,

	The secret to this difference is that the cartoons use so little colors
between the frames .On the other hand your animations through imagine are in
full colour 24 Bit format (At least the original one) .Besides that if you want
your animatins to be more smooth ...you will have to use STABLE camera .If you
use a lot of camera movements in a scene then your animaton is likely to be 
jurky (This is because of the compression that ANIM5 format uses) .This is 
because this format saves the difference between the frames and it needs some 
time for your computer to decompress it again and so you the original animation
	There are ways thogh to solve your problems .First of all the less 
colour and less resolution the speediest your animation would be .If you CAN'T
make this (LIKE I DON'T)...there is a program called VT in conjuction with
Make ANIM7 .I really don't know where you could find them in aminet(SORRY)
The ANIM7 format is MUCH more speedier than ANIM5 BUT your animation will be
larger(because it uses less comprassion)..I guess you can't have'em all.It is
either speed or disk space

						Yours sincerely,
