I haven't tried it myself.  According to the changelog, from NagVis
1.4rc1 "Background image can now be in jpg, gif or png format (SF.net
1901540)".  I'm not sure if this means the iconset can be .gif too or
not.  I would guess not, but you could easily try it just in case.

See:
  http://docs.nagvis.org/1.4/en_US/changelog.html
for the changelog
and
  http://docs.nagvis.org/1.3/en_US/extending/iconsets.html
for the documentation page on adding custom iconsets.

Cheers,

Jim
