I hope it is something simple. What are your thoughts on the problem?

Crap...sounds like we need to do some tests. I think though that we are okay to 
continue and do this month's release. Do you agree?

I will check the file out and see how many pieces of clipart are in there. My

Yeah, we need to look into this....first thing post-release, as the files are 
still there, but we just haven't refined our process enough to move them...
