How to download and use Animated Gif Images.

    To use these, you must save the animated image so you can use your own copy.
This is important (explanation below).
    If you do not have a image subdirectory, I would highly recommend that you create a subdirectory named "images" and in that directory create a directory named "images". You can then save your images to this directory. For example I save my images to "internet/netscape/websites/images/omega".

    To save  images do this:

  1. Point the mouse over the animation
  2. Right click the mouse button and select "Save this Image as..." 
  3. Left click save, to save it to your disk
    (On some platforms, you can drag and drop the animation off the browser window to save it.)

    Using Netscape Composer you can save a whole page including all images by clicking
    "File /  Edit Page {which will open the page in your "Page Composer") / Save As / Close"

    Place your copy of the animation on your webpage the same way you can place any image. You do not need anything extra to make it animate for Netscape 2.0 or Internet Explorer (other browsers see a standard icon). Here's how to place it on your page: For instance, if you want to use one called bros.gif, do this:

    Using Netscape  Composer:
        # place the cursor where you want the image
        # click "Insert / Image / Chose File - click on bros.gif / click ok / click ok"

    Using HTML language:
        # put the image bros.gif in the same directory with your page
        # put a line on your page that says

    <img src="bros.gif">
    It's easy! You can also watch the animation off line by opening it with Netscape 2.0 or Internet Explorer - just choose "Open File..." under the File menu and locate the image.

    (on some platforms you can drag and drop to the browser window to open it).

     I suggest that you use the icons sparingly. Having too many on the same page may cause problems and can certainly make concentration difficult.
