Back when I first started using dirms/buzzsaw, I was certain my computer ran better -- especially in long stretches.  I haven't not used it in so long, though, I don't actually have any perception of what the benchmark change might be.  Computers are so much better these days, the difference might be negligible . . . but I feel better knowing (or at least assuming) my computer is constantly being defragged as I work.

(You should see the queue of files to work through after I import/export a big mail base . . .)

They get away with it because they aren't doing anything wrong, necessarily.  With the exception of adult only content, there aren't laws requiring ratings on websites in the same manner as, say, movies and TV -- and while this is suggestive, it doesn't quite hit the AO mark.  Further, I haven't seen the picture in context of the full flash and website it's on, but  in the original post, rover said
My concern is that it is inside a free flash games that to me is aimed at kids.

-- 'to me is aimed at kids'  -- which makes me think it seems like a childrens game because of its simplicity and cute rodents, but is perhaps not explicitly aimed at kids.

I'd wager it's just a blacksheep.com ha ha shock value deal, maybe designed to seem like it's for kids while being adult themed (ala peewee herman's playhouse ;).

Xara Xtreme is awesome, total control over palettes and such -- though I prefer my exports as PNG's ;)

Worth looking at is Graphics Gale, as well --   It's geared toward pixel by pixel art for video game devs who need to zoom in on the grid -- I'd imagine pixel art people would need total palette control, so that might be worth looking at.

In the free version you can't save/open gifs . . . however you can copy/paste them in/out ;)

I've always been a fan of BuzzSaw -- it runs as a process, degragmenting as you go -- essentially keeping a hard drive defragged  -- assuming you run it on a hard drive defragged to begin with ;)
