FrizzleFried:
Does anyone know if any front end plans on supporting Animated GIF files?   I know Atomic FE has some animation support,  are they simply Animtef GIFs?   How about MALA?  I am told it does not support animated GIF...any future plans?

I don't think so...  I like my game lists pretty basic to fit in with the 80's arcade theme.

Give Atomic a go if you are into Game list 'bling bling'

Having said that there is basic MaLa animation support. A smart designer can make good use of that Check out the invaders moving on this layout:

I am not looking for major bling action...just simple animated gifs so I can animate my cabinets "title bar" or something...

But I will look at that layout.

AtomicFE does not support Animated Gifs. But Avi , you can have up to 10 avi simultanous on a screen.

Conversion from animated GIF to AVI  is easy.

But i think Mala support AVi too. You should be able to convert your Gif in AVI and use it in mala.

Sorry Youki .. My mistake   :banghead:

Yes MaLa you can run AVI's.  Its designed for Video Previews instead of using Snaps.

It will load the video with the same name as the selected game
