Well, I do it all the time! My e-mai; provider is Yahoo! and I use Outlook as my e-mail interface. I do not even move the file as an attachment but I paste my ani gif's directly into my message and they have always gotten thru! Of course, my friends also use Outlook and I don't know if this has anything to do with it!\nMost recently I sent a naughty little animation of a mischievious little boy that appears at first in a front image but then turns around, drops his pants and "moons" the recepient. Just my wierd sense of humor but my friends know me!

The only problem with that - is if you want to use the avatar here on Yahoo Answers - you can't they only let you use the ones that are in your 360 account and that account only lets you use JPG images.  \n\nI tried to us GIF but it didn't let me.   Maybe they will in the future.\n\nIf they do let us in the future there ar a few good programs out there - Fireworks (micromedia) is good but expensive -  You can get ULead Gif animator - It have that and it is easy to work with and inexpensive.  Got it at Staples I think.

No can do.  But can be worked around with other methods.  For a picture to be put in an e-mail it either has to be 1. attached on the message, or 2. available on the web to link to.\n\nIf you want to use #2, then post the picture someplace like your personal pictures in My Yahoo, get the URL to the picture, and then put this in your e-mail\n<img src='..theurltoyourpic..'> Or use your e-mail's URL linking ability if it has that option.\n\nThat's a basic how to, and many e-mail programs won't allow you to do this, so don't expect it to work well.

Don't panic. It's very easy.\n\nFind the <body> tag in your page. and change it to this:\n\nJust make sure that the image\nyou want to use is in your root folder\n\n<body background="Whatever_image_name.gif">\n\nmake sure the extension is there. This site won't let me\npost the whole name so make sure that you have the .gif\nand the closing "\n\nAlso, make sure to put a space between BODY and BACKGROUND!

Save the picture as a JPEG, BMP, or GIF and attach it as an attachment through your email. You can also embed the picture in your actual email using some of the beta programs many emails are offering. For example: Yahoo is offering a Yahoo Photos beta where it allows you to embed your photos in your message, this takes up less space and also lets your pals view it without downloading it.

Adobe ImageReady, among other programs, can be used to make animated gifs.\n\nThere is a tutorial for making animated gifs with ImageReady 3.0 here:\nhttp://www.albany.edu/cetl/resources/howtos/animation.html\nAnd one that may be more up-to-date, since 3.0 is pretty old now:\nhttp://www.informit.com/guides/content.asp?g=photoshop&seqNum=206&rl=1

To enable animated GIFs, select "Internet Options" from the Tools menu and then click the Advanced tab. Scroll down to the Multimedia section, check the "Play Animations" option and click OK. From now on, you should only see the first frame of each animated GIF that loads.\n\nRemember that IE will need to be restarted for the changes to take effect.

Create your HTML page (.htm or .html extension only) and attach it to ur e-mail. The html content will automatically be shown when the recipiant is a yahoo user. However, to link any image, .swf file, etc., u will have to upload it to some hosting sites and link that address in your HTML.

If you're using Yahoo Mail and Internet Explorer, you could install Yahoo Photomail.  It gives you a choice whether to embed images into your email or to attach these as files.

After some(not sure which) version of windows they removed being able to put animated gifs on a desktop, but there is one way you can do this, that being making a webpage, or using a webpage that contains the animated gif and setting it as a desktop item.\n\nTo do this right click your desktop then choose properties>>Desktop>>customize desktop>>web\n\nThen choose new and either type in the URL of the web page or browse for the local webpage ;)\n\nHope i helped.

Yahoo will not answer this question.  You can resent your general preferences to "text only" emails.  That is a temporary fix, though.  You will NOT be able to send graphics or color in your emails.\n\nMy problems started after an automatic update of internet explorer did not work with the Yahoo browser.  SBC told me to do all kinds of stuff that didn't work.  Then they told me the problem was with Internet explorer and that i needed to contact my PC manufacturer for the fix.\n\nYahoo and SBC need to get together and find a solution to this problem or they are going to lose customers.

Yahoo mail is a little weird.  You can't insert an HTML code into the mail, but you can copy and paste the result into the body of your mail.  Like, if you want to insert a picture, if you put in the html code, it will just show you the code.  Instead, if you right click on the picture and hit "copy" and then paste it to the body of your letter, it works that way.
