How can I save an animated picture  to use in email - that will  show in main body of mail form and not as an attachment.?
Thanks

Have you tried using Incredimail for your mail programme?

Hello Mary,

thanks for speedy reply and yes I have viewed incredmail  but I wanted to know how to save

specific animations that  I see and enjoy  from various places.

On a PC if you right click on the image one of the options is to save image (or save image as) ..... regardless, the image should always be named with the gif suffix NOT jpg or jpeg.

eg smiley1.gif

Gif animations are associated with html pages - some email programs will handle html email - but to some people they are a nuisance and I know they get stripped out of hotmail for instance.  They may even make your emails bounce back from some firewalls as suspect.
If you have Netscape -- open Composer - pop the gif on to a page Composer and view in Netscape --  that and you can view it anytime.
