Gee nephish,
I am still scratching my head trying to figure out why the first version did not work and you come up with a working alternate. Great job!!!

By the way, you are right this line is a ""/' nightmare, my editor flags it down as an error, wants a " at the end ...

Maybe you can triple quote the whole spiel.

Also, the indents in the while loop are not consistent, are you mixing up tabs and spaces? I always use spaces since tabs are not set the same with every computer.

Are you using .gif or .giff?
