I've been doing web for a while, and the only way I knew to animate an image was using the .gif format. However, someone sent me a link today to a somewhat humorous image. I couldn't help but notice that the file format was .jpg, yet it was animated! I had no idea this was even possible....

Does anyone know how to do this?

The file extension just happens to be JPEG but it is in fact a GIF image, only renamed.

The file extension is .jpg but the file is still a GIF

YOu can't do this. This GIF file was just renamed to .jpg and a browser does not care about a file extenstion.

It's just an animated gif renamed to have a jpg extension. Your browser (or whatever program you are opening it with) isn't fooled and just displays an animated gif.
