I reverted the change in icon-slicer CVS; if redhat-artwork now builds doesn't trigger this warning, this bug can be closed. If it does, that needs to be fixed, or the build will break next time we pull in a new icon-slicer release. So, the issue seems to be that the "watch" cursor only has animations for size=24. Can't you have different length animations for different sizes? No, I don't think that makes sense.... of course, the underlying cursor file format doesn't care if there is any correlation between different cursors at different sizes, but the idea of icon-slicer is that we have: Information about the cursor independent of size Sources images at different sizes To show further why it doesn't make sense, there is only one specification of delay times, so while you can sort of make it work to have a single frame of animation and an entire animation, you couldn't have one animation with half the frames of another animation. I don't think there is any alternative to drawing the missing frames. The way the watch is animated would make it entirely difficult to animate it for other sizes. The rotation was done in Illustrator and the flowing was done pixel-by-pixel in the Gimp. Duplicating this for other sizes would take a *lot* of time for something that is not seen by most people. I suppose we perhaps could take a "replicate for missing frames" interpretation, and optimize it internally to add up delay times instead of actually storing the missing frames.
