My initial thoughts are concern, becuase based on the footprints a dog is chasing a person.

Second, for some reason, I think it may be a musical clue with the highlighted paws coresponding to keys on a keyboard.

But it's probably just a number with the digits numbered 0-9 and the highlights tell us a number.

This is what I see in the frames:

There aren't that many digits that have different colors.

Starting in the 4th frame, the big toe on the left footprint is grey for 2 frames.

The 6th frame is normal.

The 7th-8th frames have the big toe on the right footprint colored grey.

The 9th frame has the right footprint go off the screen.

The 10th frame has the half of the right footprint, and the 11th frame is blank.

The 12th frame starts with the left pawprint, which has the top toe print grey for 3 frames.

The 15th frame has the bottom toe print on the right paw turn an olive-green color for 3 frames.

The 18th has the second toe print on the left paw turn a darkish-tan for 3 frames.

Here's a breakdown of the color codes:

First toe print: 756C74
Second toe print: 696D61

First pawprint: 74756D
Second pawprint: 2E6874
Third pawprint: 6D6C03

I don't mean to be the party pooper, but where did those color codes come from, and how did they convert to ultimatum? I'm just interested in knowing how you figured it out.

[edit] Better yet, howbout letting me in on the irc server and room name.
