A sample PICS animation has been included in your Media Player 2.0 folder, entitled “Media 2.0 PICS sample.”  You can open it and view it by following the steps above.  It was recorded in black and white because color animations take too much space.  Media 2.0 PICS sample was created by Morgan Deters, owner of Imperial Software.   Media 2.0 PICS sample runs fastest in 8-bit color mode (256 colors).
