Morning all - especially those more knowledgeable about these matters than me. Actually, yes... morning all

I've created a Christmas Card as a Flash Movie. And very nice it is too. I've looked at embedding it in emails to people, but this seems to be a non-starter, as firewalls don't like it. So I'm going to send it as an attachment. I don't want to do it as a SWF file, as ipads don't like 'em. Which is a PITA

So I've got the option to export it as a Quicktime movie, A Windows Media File, or an AVI file, or an MPEG4

The question is... whats the best format, that most people are just going to be able to open? On PC's mainly? Without fannying about?

Your advice please oh wise ones....

Do people want to see you flashing? Especially at Christmas, you'll put them right off their egg-nog.

print each frame onto a post-it note, assemble into flick book, then post 🙂
