I think that the worst thing in WLM is that when I insert an inline picture,
it is resized, even if it is only 640x480! This is very annoying especially
when I insert an animated GIF, because when it is resized it is no longer
animated!
So I had to use Windows Mail instead of Live Mail to create my Xmas
greetings mail!
Well done, MS!

I agree it's confusing, but the recipient does see the animation, so it's
not lost.

That's really strange because I tested it before I posted my answer just to
make sure and the animation was viewed by my recipient.

Windows Mail allows you to send moving gifs, however having tried Windows
Live Mail on a couple of accounts & PCs, I am still unable to get the gifs
working correctly.
Please can you let me know how you have overcome this Larry, as I'm about to
chuck my PC. Thanks.

Have you tried sending it as an attachment to see if the recipient see the
animation? If not, try that. Also, make sure their security settings are
not set too high and what e-mail program are they using?

Yeah an attachment is ok, but I wanted to use animated gifs in the mail
itself alongside the text (think Yugo was wanting this too). This was
possible with Outlook and Windows Mail.
It doesn't matter what e-mail program receives it, it just appears as a
static image, Live Mail just won't do what we want it to do (
