For the past few weeks Mavic has been working with me on how to obtain and use animated images. Barry, used to be my helper on this, but he refuses to help me again.
. We all miss him, I know. Mavic found a site with free to use animated images and when I tried to download them it wanted to save in the bitmap file extension. I google it this morning and this is what I found out.
When I saw it's a microsoft extension, I downloaded a microsoft reader. It could be that is automatically changing the extensions for me, I don't know, but when I downloaded it again a bit ago the file extension was already changed for me and I was able to get it to my computer for use here.
I thought maybe others here may want to see the different file formats for images and if nothing else, I might need the reminder one day in the future of what I did to obtain different types of images.
Heading to exercise shortly as missed it the other day when everything was covered in ice. See you later today or when I'm back, whichever happens first.

I may not use them as much as she does, but it does allow me something other than only using my own images all the time, not that I don't have plenty of those too.

@Mavic123456 If you don't mind, I will just download this image to use here periodically as my avatar.

Barry's animated avatars were a treat for me.
Your new one looks very nice. I was just about to remark on it and saw that you had made a post on it.

@responsiveme I was hesitant to use them here, but Alex says they're not concerned about images here. I'm guessing because what we write about pretty much stays in house and doesn't get to search engines much if ever.
