Google's Picasa doesn't support animated image files, so if you try to upload an animated image via Blogger, you'll have a problem as it'll stop being animated - because, behind the scenes, pics uploaded via the Blogger post editor are stored on Picasa Web Albums.
So if you want to post an animated pic on Blogger - perhaps an animation you've created from several separate images using a free animated GIF creator - the solution is just to upload it elsewhere to a free file host which allows hotlinking and supports animated GIFs, like Fileden, and then link to it from your post using the "Or add an image from the web" option of the Blogger toolbar's "Add Image" icon.

My grandpa once told me about "animated GIFs"... what are they again?
If I took that as a joke I'd say, go ask your grandpa! :D
But I shall take that seriously. An image file that shows moving pictures, it is. Check this out fer instance...
Take a look at Picasion (http://picasion.com/). It can make animated gifs online from Picasa Web pictures.
You can make, save and serve your gifs from wegif.com
I have no problem with loading my animated GIFs on bloger because I only use blogger to upload the animated GIFs and store them on there and then I use the url from animated GIF's to embedded them on my none blogspot website and they work fine ...
They are still working fine ....
