I meant the part about the player partly as a joke, but if sound is=20
added and it's decided to make some kind of playable animation to send=20
to relatives, I'm sure we'll be able to come up with something better=20
than animated gif (which as far as I know doesn't support sound) ;-).=20
And I'm not sure if it should be part of Tux Paint, or rather be a=20
support program so it doesn't interfere with the easy to use inteface of=20
Tux Paint.

BTW, will there be a binary distribution for Windows of the release=20
candidates?

Kind regards,
