    Avatar Help

    I'm trying to upload a moving .gif file for my avatar, but it is always static with just the first "frame" showing. Anyone know how to do this?

    It seems the avatar you would like to use is too big. I guess it is bigger than 120x100 so you can't get it to work as the board resizes it and the animation gets lost because of this.

      you will have to figure out if the gif file is larger than the allowed size by either resolution, or file size. using a program like imageready you can shrink the resolution to size very easily. if the file size is too big you will need to go through and erase a couple frames that show little movement. or just use every other frame. that will cut the file size in half.

      hope this helps some.
