Are you letting the browser resize it to the current dimensions? If so, it'll probably pixellate. If you resize it in PS and then just put it up there as its standard dimensions, it should be good.
thanks. I switched out a jpeg for the original gif and it's much nicer. But I have other issues, any web design monkeys want to help? :help:

Writing code for a semiemprical reactive bond order potential for Si-C-H systems. Yea me!

I got the attractive and repulsive terms working correctly but there is a bug somewhere in the bond-order term. Dang it. At least I know approximately where the bug is now - buried somewhere in 1366 lines of code.

Should be paying attention in my CAD/Sketch-up class, but surfing the monkey instead... This prof is boring as f*** and the class has almost zero relevance for me... bored student rant...

i'm resurrecting this quality post. especially narlus's last comment. :D

what i should be doing:

1) reading up more on statistical parametric mapping since i'm starting a brain imaging project with a new lab next month. mri. autistic children vs. controls. 3, 6, and 9 years old.

2) learning how to be a more sociable human. as those of you who have seen my facebook profile have read, i'm now officially not warm and fuzzy. normally i wouldn't care, but this has actually landed me in a bit of trouble. :D

3) keeping up with the 10 scrabulous games i have going on facebook: http://apps.facebook.com/scrabulous . if any of you want to play, challenge me! mwahaha: http://washington.facebook.com/profile.php?id=2147

4) uh, i guess i should be posting quality content on slopemonkey, too. we shall see if this happens.

5) processing photos from yosemite national park. expect a lounge photowhore thread soon.

I should be working on my truck, but I have been running errands for the wife almost all day.

Tomorrow I will be building custom door panels and starting the stereo install. I got a great deal on a welder and that should be here next week. That will make for a great next weekend.

Avoiding the nine to five
Relaxing after 10 hours of Wilderness First Responder class. It is raining and I'm spending the night inside for the first time in 3 weeks (thank god).

Currently debating my need for housing over the next three month and if I should use my money saved for rent and put it into outdoor gear to survive a Utah winter out in the field.

New job looks exciting. WFR has me thinking about upgrading to EMT or maybe just looking into med school. Who knows? I sure as hell don't.

i thought the public library's internet access was there so that deviants would be able to utilize their constitutional right to look at porn in public...
:busted:

The new job (field instructor for a wilderness therapy program)I'm looking at would put me at "home" 6 nights out of every 14 nights (and for 2-3 of those nights I can sleep on base). So paying rent for the place I was looking at seems silly. I'm probably going to spend the next month or two in training/working and sleeping at base or camping/climbing in southern Utah. If things work out and I find someone with a room available for cheap I'll do that. Until then I'm living out of my car, which seems odd, but 75% of my co-workers do the same thing.

And wireless is easy to find these days. Coffee shops in southern Utah are a whole other challenge.

So far things are working out really well though. Maybe not everyone's ideal, but it is good money and a rewarding job.
