I have seen one -- though admittedly, only one. Still, it must be possible.

Anyone know how?
 
Graphics Interchange Format?
 
I guess so, Ropey. Those tiny little animated images.

Like this....

You are right, that's a limitation Facebook has as in the profile page they only show cached images. This means that animated gifs are not possible.

I got a gif animation to work by posting it in the super wall application by sending a post to yourself and adding the gif photo link in the url option. It still only shows a still frame in your profile but if you view the post the gif animation will run.

How about animated gif's ? | Facebook

You still have to click on it to run it though.
