y cant there be a plugin made where u can have a disoplay pic animated as a .gif file....the file is sent to the other ppls temp inet files or sumwhere and then msn wont need to keep renewing it...it will jus need to read from that file...
it was success full if u gave it at least 7 or so seconds, becuase on slow connects it would just appear as the msn man becuase it was taking so long to load
Why haven't you talked about this????.... couldn't you release this program???.. and then maybe convert it to a plugin?????... I think many ppl will LOVE this.....
but the thing is - if there are individual pic.s used as ana nimation which change every ___ secconds, only people with high, HIGH speed internet would see it as a real animation, and even then the image files would have to be prety small in file size...
The only thing with this (if they wanted an animated picture gif like) the images fade in when you change them so each "frame" would be fading in, not to nice. If you wanted a dynamic image to change every x seconds/minutes thats easy.
