if you mean how do you find one, go to google, hit image search, and type in what you want, followed by "gif"
EX: cat gif

How? CC automatically resizes the picture when you try to load it as your avatar. If it's an animated gif, it will just do the first frame and won't animate. I've put small wallpapers as my avatar before, it's not biggy.

If you would like to make your own animated gif icon/avatar do a Google search for free gif animators to locate one. There are lots of sites that have them free and some that you have to buy... but they usually have free trial periods to let you test them out.
Most Gif Animators are simple to use and don't require much time to figure out. Then you can play with any images you like to create a bunch of animations... upload the one you want and whalaa you're all set.
