Gopher has an item type for GIF. I wonder if GIFs can be streamed. That would work maybe.
GIFs can be animated, though you might run into some trouble if the
number of frames is defined in the header.
I'm not sure how GIFs work, but I don't see a reason why I couldn't specify an arbitrarily large number of frames if I do have to define one.
Clearly real-time animated gifs can be done:

Urk! Nevermind, that clock stops after 21 ticks. Hmmm....
