that's because the abstraction (as well as the "gifs" folder) must be in 
one of your search paths (you define them in the preferences)

as long as "ol_knob.pd" is in your search path, you just create an 
object box and write "ol_knob". this creates a default version. you can 
then set it's parameters just like any PD-native GUI with 
right-click/properties (thanks to IEMGUTS, my swiss army knife for PD 
hackings)

great ! as i said, [ol_knob] is just a personal user-interface, that i 
hacked for my own goals. and yes, it's bit of an overload for such a 
simple task. mainly i wanted to check the possibilities of working with 
dynamically loaded gif images.
