Windows Live Mail and Animated .gifs

Since the new Windows Live Mail I have trouble adding animated .gif signature
files. They appear, no problem but they're no longer animated. Yet, in
Windows Mail I have no problem.

I've tried attaching as picture file and copying. All the same, no
animation. There must be a way, only I don't know what it is. Can anyone help?

Re: Windows Live Mail and Animated .gifs

You have to be composing in HTML and your file has to be an HTML file. I
have several animated signatures, if you need the code I use, let me know.

Yes, and I only posted it to show the OP that it does work.
