I haven't, as you may or may not know it was really alot of work just to get this request posted and I would have taken it elsewhere only as a last resort.
I do appreciate you finishing this as I was begining to worry. That said I am still under the impression that our deal is still in effect. Is that not so?
As it's been almost a week I wouldn't hold your breath. It might be worth sending dremits a PM, but as for the rest of the Graphics team I don't think they have the facility to complete your request.
From my experience as former graphics team leader I can tell you animated graphics aren't particularly quick or easy to make..especially if you want 23. Your request is something people normally pay real money for so if they don't end up getting done...I wouldn't be surprised.
I am working on the emoticons but I can guarantee that these will take a while. As Murder He Wrote said, animations are difficult and time consuming and with my current stressful circumstances these will mean that I will be especially pressed for time. Again I'm sorry for this inconvenience.
Next time he's in I'll check and see if that's what he want's to do, like I said before. I know he's over worked and this might help to take the burden off a little bit.
