Rendering Wordart

[a]

I used WordArt to create a logo. The "fill" on the WordArt is a picture of
flames. It looks great but when the page gets loaded the browser renders the
WordArt with a white background and then (I assume) downloads the picture
and fills in the background.

Is there a way to tell the browser to wait until it has the picture before
it displays anything?

I tried cutting and pasting the WordArt as a picture but the image quality
suffers...

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Don't use WordArt. WordArt is not downloaded separately, but rendered
immediately by Internet Explorer - other browsers will either render
nothing at all or download a very poor quality .gif representation.
Since WordArt requires a lot of drawing, it may seem to take a long time
to display.

Best way is to persevere with converting to a normal .jpg image.

See http://www.rxs-enterprises.org/tests/VML-graphics.htm for reasons
why WordArt and other VML graphics should be avoided.
