Animation
You may add any type of animation to your design, animated .gif, javascript, and/or Flash. We suggest when creating your animation, use code that will allow even users on older browser versions to view. For example, if you are using Flash, in PUBLISH SETTINGS, save your Flash out as an older version, for example, Flash 5.0. This way even viewers with an older plug-in version will be able to view your animation.

Preloader
If using Flash in your design. We recommend creating a preloader for the movie especially if your movie is large and /or includes sound or music.

File Sizes
Be respective of file sizes. The larger the file sizes of your graphics and sound, the longer it will take your recipients to download your event. You want to make sure that your design will come up quickly even for people dialing up. Recommended files sizes:

We recommend making your html or images fit within a 700x500 area max so that your viewer will be sure to see all of your important information including your RSVP button that most likely be at the bottom of your design. It is helpful to urge your recipients to click on the RSVP button to RSVP in the content of your design.
