This would possible be a fast and easy way to create screensavers. One code module for animated gifs. Replace the gif and rename the saver module if another gif is used.

Or is there is code for framed bmps, all one would have to do is rename the module, rename the bmps to the new ones, and select the timing and compile. This may be oversimplified since I am not a programmer.

I already have some framed os/2 256 color 800x600 framed bitmaps, however, near as I can tell, you have no code to support this type screensaver at present. If you had one done, then it might be possible for even me to compile once the changes are made.

Here are 20 framed 3D eCS 256 color bitmaps that could be used.

I did these in animated gifs and then extracted and converted the gifs to os/2 bitmaps.

Both use "20" frames per cycle, and 10 frames per second. In the animated gif, I did not add a pause at the end of the frames per cycle.

I also have a smiley animated gif, but it is too large to upload to this site.
