Would it be possible to allow premium members to use animated GIF files for their user display pictures?

There are not a huge amount of premium members so I can't see it causing to much problem with the speed of the game.

Also with the new tables I assume there is that little bit of extra space.

I think it would be a nice way of adding something a little extra special to buying premium.

Obviously there would still be a limit on the size of image available.

The reason for not allowing animated gifs aren't due to space, it's due to being distracting (as well as needing some code changes to implement).

Consider it animating above the game in the score board, in the chat window or in the forum, it would be an additional distraction in a core area. (Admittedly the adverts can also be a distraction but they are limited to specific areas.)

Could you have it so that they're not animated in the game but are on the web pages then?
