technical issue My Avatar, which is a gif, isn't animated.

It's the right size and all. But you see it isn't animated. What's going on?

I've been able to use animated GIFs for my profile image in the past.

Is the GIF animated if you open it locally on your computer?

Only donators/subscribers to the forum's up keep get to have animated gifs as avatars. They also get custom titles as well. There names appear in gold.

The way to use GIF avatars is to never surpass the size limit that the forums give you (whenever it is 100kb for normal users or 150kb for donors/staff), or else the animated picture will be treated as a PNG and use the first frame as your avatar, without possilibity of moving. That means, if you are going to use a GIF avatar, don't go above the limit thinking that the avatar editor will resize it.

 

Although seeing that the user has had its issue resolved, I can close this safely. Have a nice day! c:
