why would you want to use an animated image as desktop?

SmokeyTheBear · 09-22-2006, 09:25 PM

first make a webpage with your animated gif

then

right click on desktop > properties

then desktop > customize desktop , then tab web then "new" then find the page you created..

at first the window will appear small you can change the size by dragging the edges
