O.P. Display Pic-some have video, some have multiple pics
Ok, if this is some place else, be nice and let me know!
But I have seen some display pics that are small videos of themselves
and some are pic shuffle

How do they do this?
Someone told me it is scripts but could never figure that out

If anyone has a link or something I and I think many would greatly appreciate it!

The pic shuffle can certainly be done with a script.

Download link for the skin is here.
Make sure you have the latest version of Plus! installed and then import this script and you can have shuffling pics :)

As for the video, it could just be a short gif image of themselves that they took with their webcam, however I cant be sure.
You have the intellect comparable to that of a rock. Be proud.

Thx guys!
will check it out.
By the way, the person with the short vid says her laptop came with it that way-no idea what she meant, but it is just a short 1-2 second vid of her blowing a kiss

thx

Yeah, it will be a video of her that has been converted into .GIF file format.

From WLM 9.0+ you can have animated GIF's as your DP.

No, it will be a dynamic DP, which I believe were traditionally flash file animations. Just use webcam images instead

Not if it's her that's blowing the kiss.
