no photo option for gif photo

When upload a gif file, there is no option for either thumbnail or full screen. Your only choice is "insert".

As demo'd in this video here on Woltlab.com

I can reproduce this neither locally nor on woltlab.com, I suppose that the image you've used is damaged and therefore was not properly recognized by the PHP graphics library. This is quite important because the option to insert a thumbnail / insert as image is only available if the file was successfully recognized as image.

You can try the GIF below (don't ask me where I got it, found it in my pile of downloaded images), it is correctly recognized. Would be interesting if you could share the image in question, I could run it through a few programs to see what causes the non-recognition
