Ok, Im looking for a way to compress legion's lengthy (and large) animation
sequences down, unfortunately lossless compression has yielded
unsatisfactory results.  Im looking for someone to help me write a
compressor and player that would produce lossy compression like AVI, or
Smacker.  I don't want to use commercial formats because some have patents
associated with them and others are too complex because they support too
many codecs and others are meant for use with true colour images, Im just
looking for an 8 bit lossy compression scheme.
