IOS save gif image from UIImagePickerController selected image
===

I am creating an app in which I need to copy image from IOS Photo library to the app's Document directory and then upload the file to the server. I'm using the UIImagePickerController to select the image from the Photo library and save it in the app folder. It works good for the "jpeg" and "png" images using UIImageJPEGRepresentation and UIImagePNGRepresentation.

I don't see any option to copy and save the "gif" images in IOS. Is it possible to save the animated gif images. Please throw some light on how to process and save the original images (bmp, jpg, gif, png, tiff, etc.,).

Thanks in advance.
