I learned something new!

Well, okay. I finally found a software to do it right. UnFreez by Whitsoft, an animated .gif maker. It is so easy to use. It won’t do anything fancy, but it does what I want. And it is free!

BC Comic Revisited

Okay. This was really bugging me, so I Googled and Googled yesterday. I came across two different theories. As well as an extra one that Wayne posted in my comments section.
