Another avatar ?

[FranKieC]

When I try to upload animated avatars it says I can't. Is this because permissions are set denying me from this or must I provide the animations URL?

I did not know you can have animated Avvy's but it sounds like you can't upload them but you can link to them so you would need to upload someplace and provide the URL.. I tried that once and it did not work but maybe it does now.

it's probably cuz the file is too big, check the allowed size and how big the file you are trying to upload is....

ditto... I've seen at least one member here with an animated avator.. of a kitten doing pushups.. i have the .gif image saved to my Personal PC.

Check the file size.

It is either that some people have different account priviledges or it is this. Some animated files are compiled differently and the system rejects them. For example I cannot upload animated files constructed in Adobe Fireworks, but then again I cannot upload animated gifs even when put together with a simple program. There is a problem here, maybe someone could look into it.

The problem is not file size or dimensions, never has been. When I save my avatars I always check the output size and dimension before doing so.

As a test I have saved other members animated avatars and tried to use them, rejected! I must have a crappy account, probably something to do with being a valued member

There is also a guy with an animated avitar of a guy dancing behind a lawnmower as it goes across the lawn. You all must have seen this guy's avitar, he posts very frequently.

His profile is here:

I laugh my ass off everytime I see this avitar.

I think it's just the size of the file. could be jpeg or gif.

The maximum size of your custom image is 150 by 150 pixels or 19.5 KB (whichever is smaller).
