BTW, how do you play animated GIFs in between songs. Do you use the same one on the Intermission screen, or have you found another way. My Vista laptop already uses so many resources, that I have stopped displaying one in-between, because it also causes Hoster's CPU to go up, so I found a nice "still" pic that everyone likes to see in-between songs.

I use it on the intermission screen also. I have many different ani-gifs that I use for different occasions like Happy Birthday, X-mas, ect., and quite a few for normal everyday usage. I have found that some of the more complicated ones will cause the picture frame rate to slow down when you expand the intermission screen to full size. I also have a bunch of stills that I occasionally display because they look so cool, I just wish they were animated. Right now I'm using one that I call "wormhole". It looks like you're traveling through it while the wormhole snakes up and down.

PS. NVidia cards have given some problems in the past. As far as your card, if it's working for you, I wouldn't worry about them not offering updates. Once I rolled back my driver and got it working, it stays like that. I will not update in case something else goes wrong.

Cool. Thanks! The Eagles crowd will like it, but at the VFW, it might make them too dizzy. LOL

PS. I have another gif you might like, but I would definately test it on your computer. This one is of a flaming eagle, but it's one of those that I told you is intense and it may cause issues with frame rates. I'll also upload a couple more which you might like.

Yeah, sorry about that. You do have it now, and if you like I can give you quite a few more. In fact I'll add a real cool birthday one, one with stars, and a sparkly flag. Also, I need to start getting ready for Halloween, so when I find those, I'll get some to you probably sometime this weekend.
Sorry, the birthday one I tried to load up said I've already loaded it in the forum under Hoster>Visualizations, so go through the forum and it should be there. Instead, I loaded flying into colored beams.

Emilio please remember anything you upload here needs to be copyright free, otherwise you are not free to pass them on to others.

Emilio, it is really nice that you are sharing all these with us. I have the "sparkling flag" I use a lot also. It was embedded in an e-mail that was being passed around & I was able to just right click & "save as", so I'm guessing it is "copyright free".

Dale, maybe it would good to move this to "Singers & Hosts Wisdon" to share with everyone. What do you think?

Dale, every one of these are free downloadable animated gifs. Some are originals that were made by this one guy, and he allows you to download them free from his website. Others are ani-gifs that he downloaded from other sites that are royalty free and he added more to them to make a totally new gif. If you look online, there are many places to get these gifs royalty free.
