Here's how it looks in GTK port:

Chromium doesn't support it yet, but I sent them a similar patch too.

Safari will support APNG as soon as Yosemite and iOS8 are released, so now
it's a good time to consider it for other WebKit browsers, as it would help
to avoid feature fragmentation.

There are plenty of APNG files already on the internet, deviantart.com
alone reports 600+ results.

My patch is pretty small, it only extends the functionality of existing PNG
decoder a little bit. Most of the actual decoding work is done by libpng
anyway.

Thank you.
Max.
