How big is the png file ? The bigger the file the more time it takes to load and hence the pause .
Yep, that did it, thanks.
I didn't want to waste a ton of time trying things, especially since I had already resized it from 1024 x 1024 to 512 x 512 and it still caused the slight delay.
At 256 x 256 it seems seamless (can I say that?).
BTW - how do I re-set the frame rate to whatever the program defaults to?
On both of my systems I've dropped it down to about 70 fps. I'm just curious to see what the default was. I remember the 140 number, but am not sure that was where it started or just one of the levels I went through.
In any case, thanks for the help.
