Aside from {{machinima}} and {{fanime}}, Web cartoons are generally in [[UsefulNotes/AdobeFlash Flash]], as is some advertising. Animated [=GIFs=] are even easier to make and don't require special plug-ins, so they're used by much web advertising and by many forum avatars. However, some such advertising uses dynamic HTML, which just changes the position of an image on a webpage. Animated SVG (scalable vector graphics) is a new technology still in development.
