ANIMATED GIFS IN BANNERS (NO LONGER ALLOWED)

DUDE! THIS IS AWESOME!

You gotta be careful though, a moving image isn't always the best Banner, it will take attention away from your content when they get to your channel!

Not sure if I'm going to do it but I shall consider it :p
 
Any idea why it wont let me, once I've selected the sizes after uploading it says "There was a problem uploading your image. Please try again"?
 
I'm currently making one now. I made a banner earlier this week with a candle and the word 'Creepy' on it. Now, it's gonna be the exact same thing, but with a moving flame on the candle :D (UPDATE) My computer can't handle the gif making process. -_- sigh, it's always turning the gifs into a square. Does anyone know why?

Yup they work, here it is on my test channel:



That isn't the best example, I just grabbed a banner from my old channel and had the text move down in rapid movement. :p

Like @Shane said only if they look professional, the feature itself might lead to flashing banners, I might modify my current one with the text having a shine going across it.
How did you make your gif banner? did you use photoshop?
