Yeah! It was a bunch of different gifs! Maybe … 128x128 px at 12 or 24 fps, something like that?
He’d make ‘facial expressions’, and move around… looked kinda like Veggie Tales style animation.
And there was more than just Clippy, he was just the default. There was like… an Einstein look a like… a dog… I think there were at least 8 different little mascot type things, to go along with the actual ‘speech bubble’ style, actual user interface.
I remember just fucking around with this shit in the early 00s, in the computer lab.
