I do not know how to describe the gif (a merry-go-round) other than that it has the code for animation built into the image, like the animated smilies. The gif works when placed elsewhere on the page, such as in its own <div>.

The gif is only used once for a sub-category page (ie Index/Art/4D), for which there is no Includes/Modules/Page/Art (IIRC) to insert animation script, if I even had as much.

Tips or tricks greatly appreciated. TIA
Search this thread for the why gif animation does not work with IH.
(quick answer = perl)

Your work-around.
Configuration/Images
change the size setting for category image so not to match the small image setting.
