           Summary: For users whose browser doesn't support APNG files,

Lots of users (essentially, anyone who uses a browser other than Firefox) have
browsers that don't support APNG files. Instead, their browser will interpret
it as a regular PNG file and just show the first frame.

A nicer failure mode would be to give everyone a GIF file instead, and then at
runtime use some client-side JS to sniff for the feature and if present replace
the GIF with the APNG instead.
