Lillyrose Vogue SISter (3055)	# Posted: 14 May 2008 08:43 I have been pulling my hair out all morning over this. Is there anyone who knows how to upload animated GIF files without them being converted to a JPEG image. I am new to GIF animation and is just trying to learn how to post it. I have Googled it like a mad woman...I would love to add it to my blog, but Blogger doesn't use animated GIF(?) so I am using a free Webb hosting place to copy it from there. And all the help pages say that this way should work (?) But when I do that it just comes as a link and when I press the link an external page opens. It doesn't matter how I copy the file information. The animation works if I e-mail, preview in Explorer or follow the link that it makes to the external web-page, so it is not the animation that is not working. I even tried the HTML way but no luck. I just want it imbedded and working:) Has anyone done this, and if so how? Hope this makes any sense I am quite irritated at the moment...I'm like Barbara on NSD:) TIA Lillyrose

There are instructions for blogger and typepad users - all you need to do is change the image location (i.e 'http' bit) to match your image location in photobucket for example.
