Donna,

You can download pbmplus from many sites, including:
http://www.acme.com/software/pbmplus/

I'll have to double check what script you are refering to. I currently use
ImageMagick (ftp://ftp.wizards.dupont.com/pub/ImageMagick/ImageMagick.html)
to create my www page animaged loops like:

convert -loop 10 -delay 1 file1.gif ... file3.gif -delay 200 fileN.gif 
ltgloop.gif

The convert program in ImageMagick allows specifying the delay between
frames as well as the number of times the loop will run. In the above
usage, there will be a 1 ms pause on each frame followed by a longer 200 ms
pause on the last from.
