'Lo Keith,

On  Wed, 30 Oct 2002 10:20:06 +0000 your time, you authored this:

KA> The  unread  mail icon would remain animated, but show the same icon for
KA> each frame of the animation.
<...>
KA> ...obviously  wouldn't  know  each  frame  is  the  same,  so the static
KA> animation would flicker somewhat...

Yes,  you  are  correct, the series of images that produce the animation are
replaced  by  a  single  image,  so  yes, you effectively get a non-animated
animation ;)

As  to the flickering, yes, you can see a *very slight* flicker if you stare
at the envelope in the tray and watch it cycle through the images, but it is
barely  noticeable,  well  I  should say it is barely noticeable to me on my
machine.  Maybe it would be a little more noticeable on others' PCs, I can't
say.

What  I would say, if you have the time (probably about 10 - 15 minutes), is
try the mod and see. If the flicker is noticeable on your PC and you find it
irritating just drop your original, unmodified, thebat.exe back into your TB!
folder and all will be back the way it was.

Personally, I don't mind the only-just-detectable flicker myself as it isn't
even  remotely  as irritating to me as the bat flapping its wings all of the
time :)
