co2metal's icon is one that animates. If you can't see it animated, check your browser settings to see if animation was disabled.

I know people have reported this prob before (and I think we came up with the solution), check through the forums.

Now that we have addressed the problem of seeing them, lets learn how to make them! Assuming the user has no special programs but can downlaod any available, how can an animated icon be constructed? :-D

Sorry, I can't remember. Try a forum search for "animated icons" or similar.

Yes Pierre, there is a search function on the main forums page. I didn't notice it until quite recently...

Edit: I used said search function and found the discussion I was thinking of, I've sent it back to the top. It sounds like it was a hardware problem in the end though, so might not be any help.

I use animation shop for the animations, I think there must be something similar with photoshop but I'm not sure. I have reinstalled firefox 1.0.3 and there is still no animation!

Yes, you can use ImageReady.

I have used Image Ready for animated banners before.

Animated icons get my goat though. Some of them are quite subtle and not too intrusive - say Pierre's or Anthony's (Noob). Most are irritating in the extreme and seem to feature various bits of jerky and pointless animation.

I am not familiar with Image Ready, is it downloadable for free? *grins sheepishly*

I also have noticed that many animated icons are irritating, but if it was just done with style...

It's an Adobe product (so decidedly not free).
