It would be really useful to allow custom animated graphics for buildings with some new tag (or a value for <graphicClass> maybe?).

1. Custom animated images. (The most flexible.) For example, make a new type of torch, with a flame that's been hand-drawn in a graphics program, to flicker between blue and purple flames.

2. Glow colors that change. (Probably cheaper.) For example, have a recreation building named "disco light" that changes between red, green, and blue (like the other standing lamps) on a timer.

This was spawned from this (short) thread.

Just in case you are still looking for a solution I have this utility you can use.
