Android: How do a display a large animated gif given a url?
And checkout the BitmapDecode given in APIDemos.

As far as I know, Android doesn't support GIF images' animation, so you'll perhaps have to try the other way around: create separate images for each state of your current GIF, and animate them using Android 2D animation.
This is manual, and time consuming, but sadly this is what I can suggest.

pdf view in gridview android

I would like to ask advise if displaying pdf inside gridview instead of image is possible. I have tried to display list of websites in gridview using webview.

I want to achieve that in my application. I would really appreciate any of your advice, no codes needed cause i will handle it my self. I just want to have some theories. thanks and HAPPY NEW YEAR GUYS
I think what you're going to have to is convert the pdf's into a bitmap first, then load into an ImageView, check out this post and also look into other pdf rendering libraries for Android.

SVG is not a image supported by android

That means you need custom code to make it work
I haven't tried myself but a quick google search and voila

Android Dev.: How to populate gallery by image URL?

I'm trying to build a gallery where the images within will be pulled from the images URL from a website. i.e. Instead of doing R.drawable.xxxx.jpg, you use a url to represent the image.
Is this possible? If so, can you show me an example in code?
