I select both files at the same time, right click, open. My image viewer and mp3 player open with no perceptible lag so they sync. It's only one gif, not a tile fill like most YTMNDs, so it's not the full experience. I wonder if one could save the webpage .HTML and then somehow point it to the local asset files? The main thing is the assets. Somebody smarter than me could make a new site with YTMND functionality easily, but the assets would be lost media.Note

Sounds like you need chuft's patented YTMND maker.
I have attached it in a zip. Just make sure all the files are in the same folder - the images, sound, as well as the two gifs and png in this zip. The htm in this zip, you double click on it and make your selections and it will make a htm for you that will play the ytmnd when you double click it. Just save the htm it makes in the same folder as the other assets.
For your sanity's sake I would rename the files you download from ytmnd first with names that are descriptive instead of random characters so you can tell what is what. Also this is meant for making htm's that go on a server so there is a function that checks to make sure all the assets are loaded before making the play button available. On a local machine this will be more or less instant but I have found sometimes the gif doesn't play at least in Firefox, you just see the first frame, if that happens just hit F5 to reload. But usually it just plays fine the first time.
So your ytmnd folder would end up looking something like this.

You're welcome. A few years ago when I was fixing the sound problem on the Stephers.net ytmnd's by converting them to HTML5, it was so much work that I decided it would be easier to make a tool to do it for me. Redid all of them on the site with it. BJ has one or two that have two background images instead of one, I didn't bother to implement that since it's so rare. I just edited those by hand.l i t t l es t e p h e r sNote

Spitfires or P-51's I'd guess.l i t t l es t e p h e r sNote

A WWII military seaplane. Why I chose that particular on is lost to time now hehe.
Probably because it was pre animated and just dumped it in there. I wasn't too
happy with it at the time but just left it.
Similar to this:

Thought it was some fighters flying in formation.
Those very small seaplanes like Kingfishers were typically launched via catapults from cruisers or battleships, as scouts. After the mission they would then land on the water next to the ship and be retrieved by a crane.
One of my uncles flew a much bigger seaplane, a PBY Catalina, and ferried admirals around the Pacific during WW2. Those are the big planes you see scouting in the 1976 movie Midway. They land in lagoons (or on airstrips, they also had wheels).
In addition to scouting, a key role they played was rescuing downed airmen from the sea.

We don't hear much about seaplane action.
I didn't have any family in WWII. That I know of. Either too young or too old.
WW1 and the Korean War. Had one uncle in Vietnam.
He survived that one lucky enough.
I know those planes. Pretty cool. Wish the family members talked more about their experiences but they just wanted to forget the whole thing.Note

In Midway they not only show the PBYs and have a lot of scenes with them, but they also focus attention on the Japanese cruiser floatplanes used as scouts and the impact it had that the Tone's catapult had problems and was 30 minutes late launching its floatplane.l i t t l es t e p h e r sNote
