Using animations as avatars

I'd like to use animations as avatars (for example, an avatar where Jack Nicholson from The Shining moves), because I found one that I could use. For the moment, you can't do that. It could cheer up Listal a bit.

I'm guessing you mean a .GIF image that would be a moving image.(I have a lot of them in my pics) I would vote for a no on this idea because it would be to much loading on each page that someone has a .GIF image as their Primary Picture. Have you ever entered a forum (obviously other than this one) that allows you to have actual working .GIF pics it takes a very long time to load when a lot of people have them.
