GGMAX Enhancement - Proposed APNG and/or Video support for Title and Hud screens

[mav3r1ck198-1]

Evening Lee,

We touched upon this last month but ive only now had the opportunity to tinker with the suggestion. I think it's pretty self explanatory, modern games use video everywhere, most if not all title screens have been animated in some capacity for at least the last decade. APNG support would have the added bonus of being used for animated icons/collectable items/cursors/passive hud elements as well as titles.

Above you can see my current splash screen and title screen. Below you can see them with very simple but hopefully effective animations.

Allowing MOV or MP4 in titles would mean cinematic HUDS and I think we can all agree that's a pretty awesome addition, but for now, being able to load in an apng file OR SIMILAR would be awesome.

Thanks for your consideration.
