Try getting it from HERE.

Failing that, get the latest version of Shockwave from HERE and try again.

Maybe it's not working because of an IE setting. Probably a security setting in tools / options.

Your's is a bit blurry because you're using .jpg, .gif is much better choice for low colour high contrast images.

I was gonna suggest changing to .png but I didn't want to sound like an arse.

Buuurrrn all GIFs!

Drop the colours down to 256, keep the jpeg resolution on maximum and make intelligent use of your crop and resize tools.

It's all I did

Dropping the colours to 256 is the key to making it fit into the 10k limit without it looking shit.

You don't need to resample it. You can just change the size of the browser window. This way the vector stuff is scaled which should result in a slightly cripser image. Then drop those 500-600 colors down to 256... save it as png or gif and then run over it with pngout

Got mine yay!

The glasses all have enormous frames, which kind of annoyed me, but I really do own a bowler which was cool. And the seperate stubble option is perfect because although I ostensibly wear a goatee, I'm the sort of person who should shave twice a day and I tend to do it more like once a week.
