[Qgis-developer] Animated gif support now in changelog

[Neumann, Andreas]

Hi Tim, 

Nathan also recommended me LICEcap. It is easy to use and works well.
The only drawback is that sometimes it creates white artefacts when you
move the mouse (see f.e.
http://changelog.qgis.org/media/images/entries/4ac86473163c0b1e322343de1e4013262c2492ce.gif
or
http://changelog.qgis.org/media/images/entries/f8297ba9ee600c3d41114db96f56b00bb278ba4e.gif)
- not a big issue. Only minor annoyance. 

Thanks - btw - for the "Click to play" buttons. It is much better now!

See Matthias's entry "New configuration options for attribute table" - I have added a small example there. It would be great if you could use your favourite gif tool to make little animations of new features. If you need any help getting logged in / entry creation permissions, please pop me a note.
