Avatar help

[Sir Jabberzapper]

I need help with my avatar. Whenever I try to upload an animated avatar, it freezes at the first frame whenever I see it. How do I make it so that I can see it moving when I upload it?

It has to be under the size limit and the hight limit

[Squiddy22]

The maximum size of your image has to be 64x64 pixels. If it's bigger, it'll resize itself. If animated too, the animation won't work.

It must be the size of this block or smaller:

Can you post the image here? I'll resize it for you.

Make sure when you are uploading the image to our server, that you have the resize button unclicked. That will stop any animated avatars from working.

We have an avatar resize button?

Guess that's not available to normal users. Sorry, I'm so used to doing all my forum stuff in the adminCP..lol.

Erm the avatar is my avatar right now but in case you see it as 64x64 (which I doubt it is) it's attached at the bottom of the post.


Also whenever I order avatars from avatar shops, they animate for everyone else but not me.

I was able to resize the image. It's the best I can do. Here you go:

it looks good Squiddy and i checked and it fits size requirements

[Sir Jabberzapper]

It's great... but it isn't a valid image type >.<

[Goomba]

I tried it out and it works. I don't know what's wrong. It worked for me and Kit. Try it again.

[Kit T. Kat]

i did not apply it as my icon, i just saved it to my pc to view the properites

[Sir Jabberzapper]

Well I tried it again but it is in .bmp format when I save it... and thats the only format I can save it as.

[Kit T. Kat]
