I did a search on google for 'animate lilo menu' and it came back with alot of results.
This site has some interesting ideas for animating lilo including downloads and some screenshots of what lilo could look like: http://www.gamers.org/~quinet/lilo/index.html I haven't tried this myself yet but certainly will now. Does anyone know of any other animated lilo menu's on the web I could get that are jazzier than the ones at the Url above.
