I'll just add that you can also put custom check-boxes on your toolbars to activate or inactivate content such as GIF animations with a simple click. Oh, you're allergic to mice? Then program a keyboard shortcut of your choice to control content in Opera.

The magic key is F12 for quick preferences. You can not only disable gif + svg animations there but also JS, plugins and more. And reactivate them equally quick (although you need a reload to reactivate stuff). If you want to allow animations on a specific URL you can globally disable animations and select Site specific preferences with right click on the page and enable animations just for this site (and there you can enable / disable much more things of course).
