Certainly, this is what happens when one uses a web accelerator when downloading an image, but I've never seen or heard of this occurring otherwise. It's a digital file just like any other, and thus you should be able to move it an infinite number of times without any degradation whatsoever.

Sorry about the domain name. I bought a good domain name for the strip not a week after I sent the message to you. It's now 100% easier to say. = ) As for the programs, I second Gimp. I have seen some amazing work come out of it. A friend of mine uses it almost exclusively for his digital work. Like all good programs, it does have a bit of a learning curve but you really can't beat the ton of plug-ins and the fact that it's Free. Great show. Keep up the good work and... I'm sorry I killed Tanya's system. First, thanks for the pimpage. Sorry about the domain name. I bought a good domain name for the strip not a week after I sent the message to you.
