PHP GD Image - output animated GIF

Question

I have a animated GIF that I want as a watermark. How do I include an animated GIF? is this supported?

Answer 1

If you want It to be an actual watermark - present in the whole image when downloaded - then you'll have to convert the whole thing to a gif and overlay the background image (repeated every frame) with the watermark frames.

Do you have to have the animated watermark? Could you have a static watermark with the animated watermark positioned over the top of it?

At the end of the day, you can't animate a jpg, and having all your content saved as gifs is something I'd try and avoid
