Hi there

Sadly, the option to use gifs is not available in the user account options, only jpg's are allowed from memory

The only way you can have a gif file set as your avatar (again from memory) is to email a copy of the file over to a member of the admin team & politely request that they help you out.

A list of the admin team can be found here.

I trust the above is of some help.
