If you have a few GIF images to cycle through, you can stitch them together using 'gifsicle':

I've used that for weather radar animations, to get more than the standard 6 image cycle. IIRC you can set the delay between images as well as the restart-loop delay and maybe other stuff too.

Ok, Figured I break this out into a separate thread, to get all ideas and thoughts about possible icons sets. Now in the past I put together a set, can be found on TheShire. I am not pushing it, just restating since I see alot of comments that this set applies to; color-blind friendly, corporate friendly, recent icons attract the eye. So this is what is presently available if you want them. I am not sure of the state of the archive on TheShire, I have created a few new icons for a special project. If there is interest, I can create a complete icon set (some are missing, they aren't used much; circle with question mark in it). I have included a screenshot in this email to give you a sampling. Also, I think past feedback suggested the pulsing might be better if slower, again if there is interest I can implement that & provide an update icon set archive. Some thoughts.
Green is ok, so a static icon is fine: keep the smiley.
Red / Orange is bad, so a pulsing or changing icon for atracting attention. A red smiley with the shape like the stop road sign pulsating to an X. An orange smiley with a triangle shape plusating to a - or _. Red pulsating faster then orange.
For the other colors, the shape is not that important.
Who knows a good program for creating animated icons for linux ?
