How to add moving .gifs into paint.net

[skipper]

For a while now I have been trying to find how to add moving .gifs into some of my paint.net works, yet whenever I try to find an answer the only thing that comes up is how to make a gif on paint.net which is not what I want. Could anybody kindly tell me how to put gif into a paint.net piece of work or at least include a link to where I can find a tutorial. 

 

P.S. Just in case you were wondering I am trying to make a signature for someone on another forum. Here is a picture of something along the lines of what I am aiming to make.

 

Thanks

Just a question. How did you make that cool  moving Simpsons GIF on your signature?

I didn't make the Simpsons signature I was just using it purely as an example of what I wanted to be able to make.

Sorry to ask. But what do I do after I've followed the 1st links instructions?

Never tried that plugin myself but my understanding is that you have to rename the gif file into something with a .agif file extension before opening it on Paint.NET and just re-change the file extension to .gif after saving.

 

You can try reading the whole thread, mate.
