Are you allowed to make your own animated gif and put it as a display picture? Will it animate?

Yes, as long as you are using Windows Live Messenger 2009

It will animate properly

Users of WLM 8.5 will only see the first frame of the GIF as your display picture

I have a .gif animation, but when i select it to use it as a Display Picture it says: This is not a valid image, please select another image.

Anybody knows what's up?
