you can do it thru windows, just put the image in your pictures folder via my documents and it will show up on the desktop properties when you go to browse for your img |

what ? | put the gif you want as ur wall paper in C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\My Pictures
then when you right click on the desktop, hit PROPERTIES>DESKTOP
then scroll up the available images until u find the one you're looking for. if not you can always click BROWSE and set it that way
OR u could right click the gif file itself and hit 'set as desktop background'

Setting up a GIF animation on your desktop is no different, than setting up a standard image. |

If you're trying to stretch size of the animation, that will happen. What you'll need to do, is resize the animation in a editor. |
