It is recommended that you leave ChompText zipped after you download it. This way the class file and the chompani.gif image stay together. Just set the archive attribute in your applet tag to "ChompText.zip". This should work.

You can replace the chompani.gif file with your own image, if you like. But keep the same file name.

Issues

These are not really bugs, just issues you should be aware of.

Speed: On some machines (slow ones), ChompText looks weird. I tested it on a 100MHz box and ChompMan appeared as a deformed yellow blob about to keel over.
Running multiple instances of ChompText on the same page can cause problems. Whenever one pauses, the rest will.
The archive attribute may not work on some web hosting services, such as this one. This is not a problem with ChompText itself, but it does apply to it.
