ActiveBitmaps or quasi-animation

Here is the latest version of ActiveBitmap version 1.2.4

Change log since 1.2.2

Changelog:
1.2.4 Add the ability to add text to the animation with an optional icon
The icon must be an image available from wx.ArtProvider

    Fix bug that assumed PIL was loaded

    Permit more than 1 animated file in the bitmap_list, also allow an animated file, followed by single images
    e.g. [a.gif, b.gif, ...,] or [a gif, a.png, b.png, c.png, ...,)
    Note to be animated the animated file must first in the list

1.2.3 Test PIL image for the more robust ‘is_animated’ rather than rely on if ‘loop’ is in image.info
When setting range, also set the current image index to the start value of that range.
If image returns an attribute error e.g.
the file can’t be found, isn’t a wx.bitmap or you supply an animated file, that isn’t really animated,
first attempt to convert it to a wx.Bitmap, failing that, substitute an error image and
set a Tooltip declaring the attribute error.
