Replacing Animated Web Navigation Icon
Friday, February 3, 2006 by David Ross | Discussion: WindowBlinds
Can someone tell me how to replace the animated icon in the upper right corner of browser (IE in particular) and folder (like 'my computer') windows? Thanks very much for help with this.

Thanks very much for replying. I assume SKS is Skin Studio though I've never used it (I've been doing desktop design but not designing any desktop elements). At any rate, I just opened Skin Studio to see if I could figure out how to change the throbber but can't find a reference to it. Can you point me in the right direction? Thanks again.

to see where it fits in, open the Anion skin in SKS, then navigate to the Throbber seciotn in the Explorer
if you look to the right you will see the file name of the Throbber
you can then change the file to your own animated throbber
i hope this helps

That type of thinking took four more post than expected.

What you're describing is commonly called the Thobber.
It can be changed per skin in SKS or you can try this link: http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/throbber.htm
Good luck
