PathListBox: making rockin' animations

This is the second post on Silverzine about PLB (PathListBox). If you missed the first one check it out here: PathListBox Getting Started.

Ok lets check out how to make some animations using a PLB. There is so many possibilities on what you could do with this control when animating, I am just going to cover a few of the main ones, but experiment with everything because there is a lot more to be discovered.
