Over the long weekend, I got some very positive feedback regarding my Squeaky Tales series. People seemed to like my movies, though my first attempts had some video compression snags which forced me to temporarily abandon Flash video in favor of Quicktime. The downside was that the movies took a long time to start, since they were essentially fully downloading before beginning.

Today I worked out the kinks and encoded them back as Flash FLV movies. They should start up more quickly and should also be more compatible with different systems. FLV is the video format used on YouTube.

I just posted Squeaky Tale #2, which introduces a new character in the plot besides Seymour the turtle. As before, let me know if you have any problems. Also, keep the kudos coming. It helps to know you’re out there!
