Question Slow Animation on top of Java Applet

Put together a real nice animation of a moving rocket ship; & wanted it to be placed on a dynamic space background. Found a great free Java Applet entitled "Flying Stars", where a field of stars moves laterally across a black background (in the same direction as my animated ship)!

Trouble is, when I assign my animated .gif to the Applet code & preview in my browser, for some reason, the animation plays very, very slow (i.e., instead of the frames playing every .1 second, they play every 4 or 5 seconds.)

Was hoping someone here could provide some insight (& hopefully some answers.)

Thanks in advance,

mark4man
