Dense Caption
The image displays a 6-frame animated contact sheet for an AOL Instant Messenger buddy icon featuring the Mega Man character. Each frame shows a pixelated blue robot-like figure with red eyes, positioned left of centered on a gray background. The character has a rounded head, rectangular body, and cylindrical limbs with three small red dots on its side. Below each character is white text reading "MegaMan" in a bold, blocky font with an underscore beneath it. Frame 0 shows the character facing right with no additional elements. Frame 1 adds a single vertical white line to the right of the character. Frame 2 extends this line into a thicker white rectangle. Frame 3 replaces the rectangle with two small plus signs. Frame 4 adds another plus sign, making three total. Frame 5 shows four plus signs in sequence from left to right. The animation progresses through these changes: no elements → single vertical line → thick rectangle → one plus sign → two plus signs → three plus signs. All frames maintain consistent character design and text placement with only the white graphical elements changing across frames.
