Photos should handle a large palette of photo types and GIF is very popular.

GIF's, animated or not, do not show up in the photos library. They also must be viewed in another application as well.

I just retrieved the latest pantheon-photos update and I noticed the great improvements like navigating left right with keys and being able to save by pressing ctrl-S or save as with ctrl-schift-S.
Kirill Romanov (djaler1) thanks again for these improvements!

I also noticed it could open a gif, but it wouldn't animate. Did the committed fix include animated gifs? I know the title mentions gif **photo** files.
