I too would love to have an animated wallpaper on my desktop. Is it even possible though?

I suppose you could use a mng or animated gif. Or perhaps with a specific util you could use a movie file as your backdrop. I wouldn't tho. Waste of memory IMO.

Using a certain winamp plugin makes a nice background. milkdrop iirc

I doubt it'll be much of a strain on memory. Most people have 1 gig of ram these days.

All the same, I'd rather put my enourmous system resources to more productive uses.... like watching anime and playing games.
Seriously I just think it's a bit of a waste as I barely see my desktop, so why have system resources being soaked up making it pretty?

Point Taken. Well, it wasn't MY idea.

Just use my desktop... pitch black covered with icons

Had to clean it up a few days ago or new stuff will fall off the desk

What do you use anyway, dukenukem? Isn't desktop sized, animated gif files huge?
