How do you react to animated gif images ?

If the animated images look natural without appearing like they are in a loop, it looks fine. But if the same animation repeats every few seconds, it just irritates. It also depends upon the type of image used.
Do you also feel the same or you just ignore them ?

How do I react? I'm not sure what to think, what to think, what to think about animated images. Those animated images that go around and around, well they do kind of grab your attention. Yes, it does depend, it does depend on the image but the one I am presently thinking of, the animated image that I am thinking about. I am presently thinking of the one that is an arrow, a circular arrow that goes around and around and around and around and says in its own little way, I think it is coming, I think it is coming soon. Then is stops and there you have your web page. I don't ignore that one because it has a function?

I feel kind of the same I guess. The only time they bother me is when there are a whole bunch on a page and they're all going every which way lol. Some of them are really cute, and some are just plain irritating and I try and ignore it. I know my avatar is animated, but it doesn't bother me. I feel mine is a good description of me: often running around in constant circles, boxed in, and getting nowhere fast!

It really does depend on the image at hand. There are some images that I just stare at them, rather transfixed, to try and figure out what is going on right now. Then there are other images where I am completely at a loss to say the very least. Then there are images that just annoy me just very slightly. Not that much, because its an image on the Internet, what are you going to do?
Of course any image, if seen enough, will just really blend into the Internet landscape after a while. Its really an uninteresting site after a while. There are just many times where I just shake my head and get on my life to say the very least. There is just something about the images that really can be interesting but yes, I can see how they annoy people. I'm not too bothered.
