When I try to forward an email that has a moving image, the image doesn't work. My forwarded mail has the little blue box with the question mark instead of an image.

Anybody know what I'm doing wrong?

And how do I save a moving image? When I try to save the attachment on my desktop, the image is still.

Thanks in advance!

Those are probably animated GIF files. Forwarding them sometimes breaks the animation. If you save them to your Mac, you need a graphics app that will play them frame-by-frame to see the animation...Preview doesn't support them. Safari will display them with animation.
