Where to use my animated GIF images?

So I made a few GIF images for uploading as my profile picture of my accounts (I have a lot of different account on the internet, like from Facebook, Twitter, Email, etc.) But I can't find a website that let me upload them. Facebook, Twitter, and Yahoo Profile will make my GIF image like a JPEG, even though I've tried a 10X10 (less than 2 KB) image and a 100X100 (about 3.2 MB) image. So where I can upload these GIF images as my profile picture so they will show the animation (except those picture hosting site)? Thank you.

Update:

To make it more clear, I just want to know if there's ANY websites that supported GIF images, meaning when I upload them, they will appear as animated picture.

    Most social sites do not allow animated images. Many forums will allow them, but they have to be a certain size. You can use ImageShack or Imgur to host any animated images. I think Flickr, Google's Picasa and several others support animated images.

    All those sites do not support GIF files that is why it does it.

    I'm sorry but can you imagine how much server space if lets say 100,000 people had 3.2 Mb profile pictures. In case you are wondering that would be 312,500 GB. That's quite a bit. All their servers combined prolly do not equal that.

    Facebook has nonetheless no longer yet updated with protocols in order that uploaded snap shots if animated snapshot would show animation. Think in few days to go it is going to allow the GIF function in that
