AboutBox3D consists of two components: MovieScroller, which is a simple upwards scroller that can be used to display credits and other information. AnimatedBackground displays a 3d object that can be animated using three different effects. AboutBox stacks MovieScroller above AnimatedBackground and adds some other components to do its magic. The 3d object displayed by AnimatedBackground can be generated on the fly from a 1bit image or alternatively an object can be provided in Wavefront .obj format.
