Animated Gifs For Avatar

**mezzacaine** · 06-01-2006, 03:44 PM

I've noticed some people have animated gifs on their avatar, I've just tried to do this and it wont let me.

Is there a certain number of posts you need to get before you can have an animated avatar?

Or is it a not an animated Gif but something different you need to upload?

They can be animated, as long as they fit the dimensions and size restriction.

<-- to wit.

Note: The maximum size of your custom image is 51 by 51 pixels or 19.5 KB (whichever is smaller).

Lol I like your avatar X, unfortunately I get the message:

"You may not upload animated images"

Maybe I need 1000 posts

Wow, I've never seen that message before.

i actually think only us mods can get an avatar that is 51x51. the regular standard is 50x50. hahah! and i'm using that extra 1x1 space to the max! check out that sweet border!

And very good use of the space too

So do you need a certain number of posts before you can have an animated avatar?

That border rocks hard

yeah, mine can only be 50x50, but it can be the same file size.

okay, i guess i just noticed that the members with dark blue names (memebers of the Penciljack Universe Development team) have avatars that are 65x65, so something might be going on with the avatars for other user groups. sit tight, i'm sure terry will have things sorted out soon enough.
