Gallery of VM web GIFs
Some of the GIF files in the table are animated. Some web browsers may not support animated GIFs.
These gifs were designed by a colleague, Gary Eheman, while he worked here at IBM. The original designs for some of these objects were not his, but making them into GIFs and the animation was his work except as noted.
For example, the VM bear image was made from VM Marketing program key tags. A little scan work, a little coloring, and a little animation, and voila!
