[rel][GPGNET client] Black skin V2 animated

Here is my animated black skin, based on the black skin V2
International DL link:
http://supremecommander.filefront.com/file/Animated_black_skin;96741
how to install:
We can actually install multiple skins without overwrite the default skin folder.
In first lookking it seems impossible because there is a bug. And it works without restart gpgnet:
Instead of overwrite the default folder, unzip files in the skin subfolder of the gpgnet installation.
EDIT: do not unzip the skin while the GPGnet client is running, it creates an index error.
NB: by defaut, gpgnet skin folder is "C:\program files\THQ\Gas Powered Games\GPGnet\skins".
After unzipping, you should have, on the skin folder one sub folder per skin and a readme file.
Then launch gpgnet and go on something like (I don't know the exact words because i have the french version of gpgnet):
tools --> options -->
style application --> Miscellaneous --> skin's name
Type the name of the subfolder of your skin in it (for example "animated black V2") and press the enter key. DO NOT CLICK ON "OK" OR "APPLY" BUTTONS, SIMPLY CLOSE THE OPTION BOX with the UP RIGHT CROSS or with the CANCEL BUTTON.
Of course, there is no langage on the skin, installing it will not change the langage of your gpgnet client.

Modification:
You can modify this skin as you want.
If you distribute it, don't forget to wrote it's based on wankey and Guig Esprit du Sage work.
The static black skin is still availlable, so if you think there is too much animations, you can replace some files from animated version by some from the static version.

for nav buttons, animations are permanent if the buttons are activated and the mouse is not over them.

In fact, for nav buttons, I can't choice when the animations are played or not.

Some buttons are animated, others not.|||Hmm idk, I think those animations might get annoying.|||An user found a problem: Do not unzip the skin while the gpgnet client is running.

The creation of a new skin directory will create an index error and you will be oblige to restart it.|||Links updated and animated icons added on the first message of the topic.|||The previous image server I used has finally stopped.
I updated the images from an other server.
