Animated Default Portraits

Animate the default unit-frame portraits with minimal side effects and without user configuration. Unlike other similar add-ons, this preserves the appearance of the baseline Blizzard portraits, including in particular the circular shape.

• Indistinguishable from baseline portraits (apart from being animated, of course)
• Simple: no user configuration
• Lightweight
• Supports both Mainline and Classic (but I do not have access to Forever yet)

Limitations

• In mainline (retail), instance mobs are considered "secret", and thus their portraits are not animated. Trying to see if I can do something about this…
• Only one portrait is animated if two are very close together. Custom UI layouts may have to be adapted for optimal results     - Technical limitation by Blizzard: UI models occlude each other when intersecting
• Compatibility not guaranteed (but possible) with add-ons that alter unit frames or other portrait frames
