A GIF in the backdrop?

I tried to upload a gif as a back drop and only a single frame shows up, but the thumbnail is perfectly animated?



what's going on?

I just copy pasted the gif in a sprite and it started doing it too, I am confused beyond belief.

You need a script:

when green flag clicked
switch costume to [first frame v]
forever
wait (how fast you want the gif to be) secs
next costume
end

Also, this feels this belongs more in Help with Scripts, but I know this is easy to misunderstand.

I said I uploaded a gif file, and was confused that only one frame was showing up on the stage, but the thumbnail is animated.

Thanks for the help though.
