Subject:[D5] OS reinstall & DOpus reinstall questions...

Hi all,

I've encountered something that I'd like some feedback on.

I recently had to rebuild my sys: partition.

I installed OS 3.1 from floppies to a blank partition.
I installed DOpus 5 from floppy to the same partition and selected
start iconified.

I installed my 5.5 and Magellan upgrades.

Things are fine to this point.

I installed OS3.5 from CD

things are still fine except for the OS3.5 incompatabilities with
DOpus Magellan pre patches.

I installed both of the DOpus patches.

Things are fine now.

Then I installed both Boing Bags....

Hmmm, the animated .gifs on the workbench aren't working.

If I install the boing bags first and then the DOpus patches I don't
think this happens.

Am I just the last to figure this out or is this something you get to
trip over only if you do a reinstall?

I'm guessing this has something to do with updating the icon.library
and under what conditions. Insights appreciated?

Regards



Wil
