Thanks for clearing that up, Mark. I was referring specifically to the
puppetsprite method as the one to avoid, for the reasons you stated. I myself
have also used the palceholder method and would venture to say it's unavoidable
in one frame movies that have many different screen states, which would
otherwise require a very large number of sprites to compose. Unless, of course,
you use IL.
Cheers,
Jerry
