Please help me to check for technical difficulties.

I directed a cartoon titled "Uncle Sam on the River" about civil liberties at:
http://www.moveleft.com/uncle_sam_on_the_river_display.html

Yesterday, I posted a link at "The Daily Kos," and a commentor posted that the dancers seemed to be missing body parts when he played the cartoon on his machine.

The dancers should have complete bodies. I think I've corrected the problem by outputting the file in an earlier version of Flash, such that the cartoon should play correctly even if someone doesn't have the latest Flash plug-in. Today, the guy emailed me that he now could view the dancers with complete bodies.

On your machine, do the dancers on the sailboats during the first minute of the cartoon appear to have their arms and legs or not?

...everyone who can view Flash at all will view the animation with all the elements.

3. Hey- if it worked with Safari, you should be good to go.

It's not the browser that most people use, though, so perhaps someone using IE would be of assistance to you...

7. I've got both. 2 Macs and a windoze laptop. I much prefer my Macs, but

there have been times when I need a PC to run certain software or open certain types of documents. Now that new Macs have dual boot though, that'll probably be my next computer purchase, though probably not anytime soon as the ones I've got still work fine for what I need.

8. Yep. I also have both.

Between my partner and me, we have 5 operating machines in this apartment- 2 mac laptops, 1 tricked out PC gaming machine and 2 servers.

(Yes, we're geeks!)

:hi:
