    I just uploaded an animated GIF banner for my Adwords campaign and when I preview it, it pauses after a few frames. Does Adwords limit the amount of frames your animated banner can have? Or is the problem simply in the preview?

    From AdWords help center:
    Maybe your image ad violates these policies?

    if you go to http://www.freewarefiles.com and do a search for image manipulater animated gifs, you can find a free program that will allow you to do this.
    Hope this helps

    Nevermind, I figured it out. When you have an animated GIF image it only repeats the frames for 15 seconds and then pauses.

    make sure you are following their rules about animated banners.
