Ploforia 0 Report post Posted January 3, 2005 You have to enable active desktop first in order to do what you are asking. To do this go to your desktop and right click the desktop and choose properties. You may already be familiar with that step. You are also going to need some flash background to do this as well. You will need to get Flash MX to do this. If you go to macromedia.com you can download a 30 day trial and get some tutorials on how to start using the program. Good Luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
liquidsparxx 0 Report post Posted January 9, 2005 yes, they're cool but they make your icon text have an ugly grey backgound...at least with me. but try searching for a program that can do that. yes, a program. but a better bet is going to http://download.cnet.com/windows/ and searching for it. i ahd the program but i forgot the name...sry. also, you have to make your own animations for it...i hope you know how to Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyway, you shouldn’t overdo the animation, when you use an animated background, that’s all PS: i really did that... the first animated gif as a background, not the elephant story, but i did another after.... 23 seconds Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
