The resolution should be 65x65 (that's the max for these forums I think). Regular MS Paint can't do this. If you want to do it free, you can try Paint Shop Pro 7/8 ( www.jasc.com ). It comes with some animation studio or something like that. You can probably open the video there (not sure what format it allows, though I do remember converting .avi) and convert it into a .gif + resize it. As for the length of the video - you'll have to check with the forum guidlines because a long video (that's like over 100k in size) could take a while to load for 56k users.
