I would like to make a program that puts an icon into the desk tray and when
relevant changes it to an animated icon (much like the internet connection
icon).

Before I start playing around with code I wanted to know what I need in way
of graphics? Which type of file, size, color system and anything else I will
need from the graphics designer?

thanx

You should post again in either the shell group

microsoft.public.platformsdk.shell

or perhaps the UI group

microsoft.public.win32.programmer.ui

As far as I know - and I could be wrong - the shell exposes a single
function for manipulating icons in its tray in Shell_NotifyIcon(). Someone
in the shell or UI groups should be able to explain your options, if any,
with respect to animation.
