i used to use the one that came with psp7 (cant remember the name), but i want to get a new one!  anyone have a suggestion?

I've used Macromedia Flash to do it. It lets you save in animated gif format, and it's more versatile than psp for animation purposes (IMO)- plus you can create animated gifs from most video formats with it too.

read your sig casi, are you still ridin? if so what?

If you're looking for free or cheap, just do a search on Version Tracker. I'm sure you'll find exactly what you need.

Sorry, don't mean to hijack-
Got the Speed Four, kept it garaged and out for rides, but NYC is not the best place to keep a nice bike to commute with, so it's garaged and gonna be sold soon. In the mean time I bought a Hawk GT on Craigslist for $1000. It has 30K miles, and a bit banged up, but It rides decent, and I don't have to worry about it getting banged up.

She's got a black seat now, and Red front fender. Ain't the prettiest thing, but that's the point of a beater.
