You don't gain much from this technique, In a best case scenario you get 16 bytes and in the worst 32, the average being 24. If you translate the key into a binary Base64 string you get a constant 22 bytes and if you are clever you can trim off trailing zeros (meaning you will get a tighter result. I'll write some code to demonstrate this. -- Strife Onizuka 16:14, 28 February 2008 (PST)
