[Bf-webcontent] Compression

[Doug Ollivier]

The new Flash video tutorials are fantastic, they seem to be very small in 
size and better wuality graphics than the standard.

i assume they work better because they are vector based, rather than 
raster-image based.

although i have never made anything with them myself, it might be an idea to 
check out.
