  Background
  ~~~~~~~~~~

  I saw this animation of the earth and my first thought was, god this is
far superior to that crappy animation that comes with IBrowse!

  So I have converted the orginal animgif to a IBrowse, Voyager and AWebII
compatible transfer animation.

  It is a spinning earth and a bloody good one at that :-)


  Information
  ~~~~~~~~~~~

  The animation is made up of 37 100x100x8 or 50x50x8 images.  36 for the
animation and 1 for the still image, so many people don't include this and
thats why in IBrowse at least you get the funny jump at the end :-)

  I have only provided a 256 colour version (as the original animgif was
256) if you want it in less colours I'm sure it won't be too hard for you
to lower the resolution of the image yourself :-)  Though the image is
perfectly matched to the standard workbench 256 colour palette.  So it should
be fine even for you AGA users running IBrowse!

  The 100x100 version is !!!MASSIVE!!! but perfect for us graphic card users of
IBrowse on massive screens :-)  However the 50x50 version was created to match
the navigation images I use as they are 50x50 so everything is in line.  If
only IBrowse allowed you to 'attach' the transfer animation to the navigation
bar.


  Installation
  ~~~~~~~~~~~~

  IBrowse:
  01. Copy the file anim50 or anim100 to your IBrowse/images drawer as
      def_TransferAnimation.
  02. Copy over the relevant icon for anim (anim50i.info or anim100i.info) to
      your IBrowse/images drawer as def_TransferAnimation.info

  Voyager:
  01. Copy the file anim50 or anim100 to your Voyager drawer as
      TransferAnim.
  02. Copy over the relevant icon for anim (anim50v.info or anim100v.info) to
      your Voyager drawer as TransferAnim.info

  AWebII 3:
  01. Copy the file anim50 or anim100 to your AWeb3/images drawer as
      def_TransferAnim.
  02. Copy over the relevant icon for anim (anim50a.info or anim100a.info) to
      your AWeb3/images drawer as def_TransferAnim.info

  It's as simple as that:-)


  The rest
  ~~~~~~~~

  Now go online enjoy browsing the www with a respectable rotating earth.
