Hi! I'm having a wierd problem. When I save moving gifs, it shows up as....like a subdocument, with several seperate images.

I've reuploaded them, so I know I have downloaded the moving gif.....but I cannot see it moving when saved to my computer.

Help? Any idea's?

it depends what you are opening the file with, the default windows picture viewer does not play .Gif, try right clicking the image and selecting "open with" and from that menue choose internet explorer.

What are you opening it with?
Quicktime, Internet Explorer and many more can play .gif's.
Try using Internet Explorer, if that does not work...then:

3.In front of open with , there is a "change" button, click on it.
