I was thinking of somethng simular a while ago. How about supporting MPG
animations that can be scaled, either to an icon level, or larger. Here
would be a decent use.. You have an MPEG of a window that has the standard
background catching on fire and burning it's way away. This MPEG would
automatically scale to the size of the window, thereby, it would appear when
you closed the window that it 'Burned itself away'. This functionality
could easily be accomplished by incuding libmpeg support. Raster, Mandrake,
comments?
