snowdrop, You can also try going to the Tools menu, Internet Options, Advanced Tab, and under the Multimedia heading, and see if 'Play animations in web pages' is ticked. It is for me, and it works for me. Regards, Dave. (wendy's son).

Snowdrop, My son says that your set up shouldn't make any difference. Try again and let me know if you see them this time. Wendy

Wendy I went to that site and waited over a minute and STILL DIDN'T SEE THEM!!!!! I am running Windows XP using IE with ZoneAlarm as a firewall. Why can't I see it? It it an hallucinating drug thing and I'm not susceptible or something like that (I do like to think I'm above all that with my brain - ha ha ha ha ha!!) Snowdrops

For those of you who haven't see the skeletons yet, my son has posted it on his website. Go to www(.)puseyuk(.)co(.)uk/temp/logo-UK(.)gif (Remove brackets) Wait about 10 seconds and then they will wave to you. PS It does work using Firefox. Wendy

If, like me, you use FireFox as your browser, then there's not a skeleton or wave in sight!!!

Yes they are still there. It appears to be random, but in the last couple of minutes I saw it change 6 times. It is still doing it now. I've not been on the cooking sherry! My son is standing here with me and he can see it too. My son says it is randomly decided on the GR server as to when you see it, but once you get it it loops every ten seconds until you change page. (He is an IT Consultant and I think he knows what he is talking about) Wendy
