    Hi, I’ve a question about import GIF in AAE.
    I saw at Adobe’s Manual that animated GIF is a supportabel format, but always when I try to import an animated gif, return an error that says that “the file format is unsupportable”.

    How can I fix it?

    FWIW, I just did this myself w/AE7 and had no problems.

    Verify in a browser that your GIF is valid.

    If it is, try bringing it into PS or ImageReady and RE-exporting it.

    In PS (CS2) you have to go through the SAVE TO WEB to make an actual animating GIF, otherwise it only saves one frame.
