Technically, you don't. For several reasons. That is a demonstration

of an offered product. It has a specific player to display the images.

There are other reasonss, my mind just slipped.

 

However, press "stop" on the display. Click on the "first" button. Use

the right-click menu to save the image. Click on the "+1" button for

the next image, use the right-click button to save that image. Rinse,

repeat until you have saved the 13 images in that loop.

 

Then goodness knows what use that will be for you, but knock yourself

out.

 

And next time don't ask a dumb-ass question in the Windows newsgroup

if your question isn't Windows-related.

What is so dumb about the question? I t got an answer didn't it. And I'm

using Windows am I not? And the item was to be stored on XP wasn't it? And

this is the general board is it not?

 

And as for what I am to do with it well I will be looking to use the

information to try and save the lives of people in the USA one day. And they

pay for their copies of Microsoft software, last I heard.

If you have time on your hands and the tools, and get all the single

images, you could rebuild an animated gif image and put all the pieces

back together animated. It's the tool to do it that you need. Just

tossing that out. I'm not sure why you need the moving chart, but

that's up to you.

It is possible to do that with these quite easily:

http://squall.sfsu.edu/crws/archive/sathts_arch.html

 

Een opening them in tabs in a browser or by using the back button.

 

What you get is a track similar to the way cartoons are drawn. And you can

follow the tracks of a storm or Low Pressure Area. And the Highs too.

 

Seeing how they behave gives you a good idea what happens next:

Interesting harmonic with the quake in the Gulf of Guayaquil:

It is 60 degrees from where that High I was writing about in this

weeks spell, disappeared of the screen at:

Both North American sites are some 60 degrees from the Alaskan

Penninsula and Unimak Island. An Eureka moment?
