- In a previous article, sbpress@engws8 (The Stony Brook Press) says:
-
- >Is there program that will show an animation on the finder backround?
-
- Dunno about that, but probably the next best thing is Baseline
- Publishing's I Like Icon, which I picked up while at MacWorld Expo.
- It's capable of playing a 32x32 QuickTime movie (with optional audio) in
- lieu of a Finder icon, when one single-clicks on the icon. It even
- plays multiple Quicktime icons when selecting more than one Finder
- icon. Even niftier is that if your file is a Quicktime movie, and if
- you've attached a custom icon to the file (under System 7), single-clicking
- the file begins playing the entire movie. Pretty cool.
