    Hello Jun-ho,

    Thank you for your post.  A .gif will work the same as any other picture when it comes to saving it to your desktop background.  Right-click the picture and select 'Set as Desktop Background'.

    Cheers

    If you do this it does not move. What is the point of a GIF if it does not move?
