I my branch, the code is in place to support a GIF, however I am working on an implementation with serveral images acting as frames so we are not constrained by a 256 colour palette

In fact it seems I am out of my league here.

We just need to update a gtk.Image with each frame, I shall try to do it, however if someone knows exactly how to do it, then please step in :-)

Kenneth , Would a .gif be ideal? when everyone is trying to abandon the format, are we stuck with this as our only choice?
[especially since this is a new product and expect to take it forward into several releases]
How is firefox able to implement a png , ? could something of the sort be done in Software Store?

Could you kindly suggest something better?

Also attaching the single icon of the progress indicator , mpt has seen this and likes it , anything you consider needs to be improved?
