[HELP] I Can't have a GIF avatar ? - Kyle - 2013-10-22 19:55

Hello,

Yeah It's loading..

Serious note - can you link me to the image you were expecting

You must've done it wrong, because I added a .gif into my avatar and it's moving.

I think the image you've chosen is a .gif, but isn't an animated one. Make sure the picture "moves" on the webpage before putting it as your avatar.

Still isn't working ?

I thought I saw it working a minute ago, but now it's not working again for me. (Maybe I just imagined it)

Hmm, Certain .gif don't work?

But now it is

iirc if the file is too big the forum resizes it. When its resized it wont be animated. Make sure its the size that the forum likes, otherwise it'll puke it out.

Ahh, Ok, Thanks Johan for that explanation

Yes, Its working, thanks Johan

Just because it says .gif does not mean it is always animated. Your .gif only is not animated and therefore consists of only one frame.

E: nvm too late.
