Make your own animated gif
For this you will need to download a program to build the animation.For Macintosh you can find GifBuilder at ftp://sunsite.anu.edu.au/pub/mac/info-mac/gst/grf/
For Windows you can find Animagic at http://rtlsoft.com/animagic/
Sample gifs to download
Both these animation programs work much the same way, they import a series of gif files like these 6 (you can download them by right clicking with your mouse).

Often the files to be animated are named sequentially "001.gif" "002.gif" etc.
The finished animated gif looks something file like this
Since the final file is small it downloads very fast and no special
plugins are required for it to work
