Hi all,

I figured it was time to put a banner up for Aquaticsuppliers.com so I spent the weekend working on my first animated GIF... what a pain!:( but I guess for my first attempt...not too bad.

What do you all think...Like it ? love it? does it make you want to go fishing?:) The banner is at the top of the page rotating with April's Aquarium. My kids gave it a thumbs up..but I do think they are biased.

I am working on some other ads that will feature my friend the "stylish" blackworm..so you'll see him again.

let me know what you think.. just keep in mind...First timer here and I am NOT a graphics guy...just learning as I go.

Thanks,
al

Al,

Not bad brother!

Send me your GIF file. I'll have the graphics team at Hughes Hatcheries fine tune the animation. :)

Best wishes!

Well Al, I don't know if it's coincidence or not as it's only been a couple weeks since I ordered bw from you but I'm noticing a growth spurt in my Juvies. Even the little runt looks like he grew a tiny bit, but not like the turks.

Thats Great Jennie :), and I hope that little runt of yours does put on some size...sometimes it does happen...I have a friend that had a runt for a good 2 years... and then all of a sudden started growing...and actually reached closed to 6 inches.

One could only hope. He's still a perfectly formed fish, does not have big eyes, can't find anything wrong other than he just won't grow??? Needless to say, I'm still keeping him, he's my little guy:D

the worm looks just like the ones on the bottom of the sneakers i bought today(the sole is supposed to be biodegradable)i didnt even notice till i got them home and put in the laces. Instantly i thought of the banner:D

you gotta give him a name. lol
