dancing baloney

dancing baloney
n.
Web page-based animated images, Java applets, and other bells and whistles that are not only useless, but also detract from the overall quality of the page.
Example Citation:
"Someday, say the Web pundits, the Internet will be full of live-motion video. But there's plenty of motion out there already in the form of animated GIFs — or dancing baloney, as its detractors call it."
— "What's online," The Houson Chronicle, May 25, 1997
