That would be a bad thing IMHO.

To be honest, the frontpage of the quicktoots almoste even bad ad the
most brutal advertisement website with all those thing flashing in your
face (...exaggeration...) .

Ok, your content is far from 'brutal' ;), but it is the same when its
comes to irritating flash/ animated/ moving things. Anyone specialist
would say this is a bad thing to do on a website, unless you want to
earn quick money and put some animated nude woman in your website... :/

I like the idea of the website! :) , but when it comes to the logo, I
only see disadvantages of (to much) animated stuff there.
