In this in your Display Picture? I've tried adding .gifs to my DP just then, it worked.

Remember MSN doesn't allow .gifs to move in your DP. Check that it is an actual gif file. Download irfanview and open it in there. It will check the respected headers and change the extension.

Or just PM it to me :)

It's possible the file is not quite to the standard. Some programs can work around these problems, but others can't: it depends on the graphics library. I have a few animated emoticons that never add correctly: one rescales, another doesn't even animate.

I never said they weren't GIF files.
