Put a picture in your albums, click the avatar button - it does all the work for you

If the animated image needs to be scaled (bigger than 100x100) then the animation frames will be lost. If you want to use an animated gif for an avatar (I'm not crazy about it because the files are pretty large) then make sure you upload it to your albums at avatar size.
