Collins,
My ".gif" is greyed out in the pull down list too but I can save a
file as a gif by selecting "save by extension" and naming the file
xxx.gif. I can then successfully open that file. I'm not sure why
this happens but it may have something to do with the gif format and
the GPL. I seem to remember some patent cruft a while back.
The point is, it works here, though not as conveniently as it could.
I just checked make.conf and I don't have the flag gif set either so
I would suggest that you try saving by extension.
