Custom Spin Logo in IE6

[shulse]

There used to be a way to creat a custom spin logo in IE4 using MS Paint. I have searched and searched for some instructions on how to do the same for IE6 and can't seem to find anything.

Does anyone know how - or could point me to some instructions for doing this?

What you mean is a "throbber".

That's it! A little different from what I remember - but same result. This looks a little streamlined actually....much easier

Where can you get cool animations for it?

Actually, if you read the links I posted, the animations are basically a series of images in a bitmap and the browser cycles through the images giving the impression of animation. Actually, the first "frame" in the bitmap is the static image and the rest are the animated "frames".
