Movable Graphics

There are tons and tons of examples of Movable Graphics out there in the world and on the internet. Choices all the way from animated "Logos" to simple little animated "gifs". I chose to look at these animated gif, their purpose, their accessibility in terms of finding and use, and also their overall appearance.

Animated gifs are extremely abundant and even easier to find and download. They were mostly used to give little bits of movement to static websites. They were very popular when everyone was customizing their Myspace pages, but for the most part, these little gif are usually annoying and fairly ugly. While there are some nice ones out there, the majority of these little gifs are quickly thrown together and have no aesthetic value.
