    Default Blinking Icons?

    I'd be curious if .gifs are compatiable with the iphone or if there is a way to theme certain icons in the dock.

    For example, if I have an e-mail it would be nice to have the icon blink on and off.

    Is this possible?

    I'm not sure that gifs for icons are compatible but gifs are compatible for some things. I think that's how people were using animated lockscreens by using animated gifs.

    That would be kinda neat...animated icons for things like mail, sms, phone, etc.

    Hopefully someone who is a detailed themer can answer this. I'm really like to get something similiar to an update in cydia where a red icon blinks when a new update is available.

    I dont think this is possable guys...icons use png and iam not sure if there is a way around that. If you know what your doing and mod the icon/app file....guess u could tell the icon to change to a different one as soon as you get a new alert...but i think thats all, i would love to see it! Altho on the android os thats possable.
