50x50 AIM buddy icon not animating?

[sdodds]

I created an animated 50x50 GIF for my buddy icon, and it still doesn't animate? the documentation states. "AIM buddy icons must be between 48x48 and 50x50 pixels. When an image is resized, its animation is lost. If Adium has to resize your image down to 50x50 pixels, you will lose its animation. Animating buddy icons therefore can not be more than 50x50 pixels."

is it resizing anyway?

I believe the AIM buddy icon file size limit is 9KB, which is significantly smaller than that image's size (152KB).
