In ppt 2003 I could use an animated gif as fill for Word Art. As an example I
could type in the word flame as Word Art and for the picture fill I would use
an animated flame gif. Doesn't work with the new 2007 ppt I have just
purchased. Does anyone know if this is a setting issue. a feature not
supported in 2007 or possibly a bug. Cheers.

Hi Warren,

I just tried using a Gif as Fill for a Wordart object. It seemed to work
fine when I press the "Slideshow" button. I think there might be an issue
with your image. Try creating a new animated gif. Is the gif that you are
using copied from another powerpoint or it comes from a source such as a
website?

Doesn't seem to work here in 2007(I'm probably glad of that!)
