I agree that animated icons become annoying but I'm thinking of it from the POV of teaching SVG Kids make their own icons - they like that. Certainly they would be further engaged and learn more about SVGs if the opportunity to make animated icons was there It could be a good opportunity but you need the right tools - Opera browser is the best I know for displaying SVGs - it seems that librsvg (information from Tomeu) is not standards compliant at this time > 2009/8/27 Tomeu Vizoso <to...@sugarlabs.org>: > > On Thu, Aug 27, 2009 at 12:43, Bill Kerr<billk...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> Sugar does not support SVG animations?
