My profile picture is even animated

Related to the recent nudge from kcott, and without really understanding what I was doing, I was surprised to see an animated "eyepopslikeamosquito" Unicode emoji (with a blinking eye) with the following in my private scratchpad:

<P> <pre> <img src="https://fonts.gstatic.com/s/e/notoemoji/latest/1f441_fe0f/51 +2.gif" alt="&#128065;" width="32" height="32"> <big><big><big>&#127870;</big></big></big> <big><big><big>&#128077;</big></big></big> <big><big><big>&#129439;</big></big></big> </pre> </P>

That is, the above displays an animated blinking eye along with the usual "pops", "like", and "mosquito" Unicode emojis ... but only in my private scratchpad, not when I Preview the post.

I got the idea from these two web sites:

If anyone can explain the difference between my private scratchpad versus making a post, please let us know. Update: I only see the animation in my Scratchpad (both Private and Public) while Editing, when I View either Scratchpad, the animation disappears.

Also interested to hear opinions on whether animated emojis are welcome on Perl Monks or should be banned.
