: Animation over a static jpeg picture I have a (simple) animation gif file (produced using gimp) and a static jpeg picture. I would like to put the animation gif file into the jpeg picture.

If you simply want to overlay a GIF on a JPEG, you can use SVG with two <image> tags. It can then be treated as a single image anywhere SVGs are supported.

Here's an example of an SVG with a JPEG and a GIF in it, although it's probably not much like what you specifically want: codepen.io/anon/pen/pgvxgp?editors=100

Put it where? On an html document? Just float them one above the other.


Depending on the colors and if you have set a transparency this can work.
If you need the animation to blend perfectly you need to re-export the animation with the background included, and use other method than gif. CSS sprite animation or a video.
Or make a png css sprite animation with transparency and put that over the jpg floating it or using double background with css.
