The ghosting icon is an animated UI so yes I suppose it is possible.

Not animated like a gif that is.
It simply switches to another picture through the use of code.
Sorry.

A function could achieve this.

Let me restate that-
You can have animated UI's.
Just note that you would have to have some code to switch to the next frame for the animation.

I believe that there's an animated bitmap control for gif animations.

wait.. no it isn't possible. this idea is tottaly different. i was actually thinking of visual values and qualities and all that suff for UI's. like if i wanted something in a ui that told me my current position it would in a small text format but i dont think thats possible.

[Greek2me]

Would be possible but I think Badspot blocks that stuff.

Also, Gif extensions don't support partial transparency, so it would be ugly as hell.
