Comment (by eatingrules):

 In Slack we discussed the ability to play/pause the loops, but the more I
 think about that, the more I think that's pretty silly in this context --
 and it would also get in the way of being able to click on the thumbnail
 (in the repo search results, for example) to go to a plugin's full page.

 I think it would be good if the system would allow uploads of animated
 images, but then only display the first frame. But if the system just
 flat-out rejects any animated image files, I think that's fine too. Plugin
 authors will learn quickly not to submit animated files either way! ;)

 Thank you!
