Displaying several images during install
How can I display a few images (as a splash or background) during copying files? I would like to display each pic for (let's say) 5 seconds and after the last image it should start from the beginning.
I tried advsplash plugin which is nice, but it interrupts installation progress and with /BANNER option I don't see any image at all.
With bgimage I can load one pic, then put some files to extract, load another image, extract another group of files and so on... but I want something that will change images independently
I also tried those two animation plugins and they didn't work - I could see only the first frame from gif files.

thanks,

http://nsis.sourceforge.net/EBanner_plug-in or http://nsis.sourceforge.net/AnimGif_plug-in can help you. Text animation http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Marquee_plug-in
For AnimGif just 'show' at the beginning and 'stop' at the end, but with EBanner you should also select places in script where to set new image.
