floating gifs

[idr]

Sorry to bother you with a probably trivial question, but I am not a graphics designer..
I found a site where some animated gifs float randomly over the page.
see http://www.childrensbooksonline.org/library.htm

I have some gifs which I would like also let to float over my site's main page. How is this done?
Please advise or direct me to an appropriate tutorial

Thanks

I would really advise against it.
Not alot of people like it ;)

go here for floating images. (http://search.freefind.com/find.html?id=6299074&pageid=r&mode=ALL&n=0&query=floating+images)

I agree with the previous message. They may look neat but they will not work in all browsers.

Personally I will not stay or pay a return visit to sites that uses them.

Thank you
You are both absolutely right, and I also don’t like too fancy web pages, slowly loading and adorned with unnecessary fixtures. Therefore I build my site as simply as possible.
However my site is designated for children and I want to enliven a little the main page and make it more eye-catching.
Really the process seems to me a little too complicated and I am not sure if I will succeed, but will try.
Thanks anyway
