Brrning mail pictures in animated version

You're referring to the classic "burning mail" animation!

Here's a simple animated version using ASCII art:

Burning Mail Animation

   _______
  /        \
 /          \
|   MAIL   |
 _______/

  ^^^^^^^^
  |       |
  |  FLAMES  |
  |       |
  ^^^^^^^^

   _______
  /        \
 /          \
|   ASHES  |
 _______/

Let me explain how to create this animation:

  1. Initial State: The first frame shows the mail with a simple box-like structure (_______).
  2. Flames: The second frame adds flames (^^^^^^^) above the mail, indicating the burning process.
  3. Burning: The third frame shows the flames engulfing the mail, with a simple | character representing the burning effect.
  4. Ashes: The final frame shows the remains of the mail, now reduced to ashes (_______).

To animate this, you can use a simple loop in your terminal or command prompt:

1. Print the initial state
2. Wait for a short period (e.g., 0.5 seconds)
3. Print the flames frame
4. Wait for a short period (e.g., 0.5 seconds)
5. Print the burning frame
6. Wait for a short period (e.g., 0.5 seconds)
7. Print the ashes frame

You can use a programming language like Python or Bash to create this animation. Here's a simple Python example using the time module:

import time

print("   _______")
print("  /        \\")
print(" /          \\")
print("|   MAIL   |")
print(" _______/")

time.sleep(0.5)

print("  ^^^^^^^^")
print("  |       |")
print("  |  FLAMES  |")
print("  |       |")
print("  ^^^^^^^^")

time.sleep(0.5)

print("   _______")
print("  /        \\")
print(" /          \\")
print("|  ASHES  |")
print(" _______/")

time.sleep(0.5)

Run this code in your terminal or command prompt to see the animated burning mail!
