How much does Llewellyn weigh?<br><br>I'm guessing around 600 pounds.<br><br>What's that translate to in kilograms?

600/2.2=272.72

The actual conversion is pounds / 2.204 = kilograms.

.0003 g ... I cut him out and weighed him.

He looks to be about... 450, 475 lb, or about 204-216 kg, I'd guess.

He can't weigh much, existing only in .gif files and some drawings.

Wow, he's pretty light as a GIF, I wonder how much I'd weigh if I was a GIF.

Very little, I would say.<br><br>How much doea an average GIF weigh?

I think we're coming on to a fly-by-night weightloss product.

Making people into gifs! GENIUS!<br><br>Gif-o-Tron 5000! You're one-dimensional anyway so show it!

One dimensional object can have wietght. Most giffs are two dimensional as images though. They're stored in 5 or 6 dimensions I think.

If you wanted the true weight of a gif, you'd have to weigh the paper on which it's prined first (before it's printed) and then print it and weight it then, and subtract the difference, and that's the weight of the gif. You'd need a scale that could weight to at least 7 decimal places (micrograms), I'd imagine.

Everyone here has seriously overestimated the mass of a GIF. When you are talking about a piece of data, the mass is actually the amount of energy required to contain that much information. In the case of an avatar (here at least) that upper bound is set at 20K. 20480 bytes, or 163840 bits. How much mass would 163840 electrons have? To go even further, what if you encoded all those bits with photons? Those little particles are essentially massless.

No, we're talking about the teeny little magnetic affected parts on the HDD that store the data for the GIF, not the electrons when it's being used.
