Locate the GIF file on the server.

Locate the GIF that functions on your computer.

Then use a FTP program like Filezilla to upload and overwrite the file on the server.

There can be a problem with GIFs when contained in an object and uploaded via X5, but the problem should be solved when you upload directly via FTP.

... (It > En) ... animated Gif images must be used in "native size" and not be resized in the host cell, and so they will work...
.. alternatively:
1) ... attach the animated Gif to the project in the "files" folder, and for the image object use the URL option, where then type:
files/image_name.gif
2) ... or use an html code object, attach the animated Gif to the project in the "files" folder, and use the <img> tag like this:
<img src="files/image_name.gif" width="200" >
3) ... or, to animate this actual > image, select it on your PC and send it over the network via third-party FTP (v.John), or with the FilesManger of the same Server, and send it to your site's network folder called "images"...
