My avatar doesn't flicker...

[kevico2]

Hey I found this great "moving" Christmas avatar. But when I post it, it doesn't move... Anybody know why? What can I do?

Thanks!

Thanks for asking - I had the same question!!!

[S J]

have been trying to figure that out out since ages. now I am happy with my picture only!

what do you mean when you post it? are you trying to use it as an avatar? upload it to site? if trying to use it as an avatar, it most likely is too big so its being re-sized and is the process losing the animation.

Note: The maximum size of your custom image is 100 by 100 pixels or 195.3 KB (whichever is smaller).

same goes if you are uploading it for your sig or site

Note: The maximum size of your custom image is 39.1 KB.

best to upload it to imageshack.us and use the url from there to put it in your sig or post, if trying to use it for avatar, re-size it using photoshop or similar animation program before uploading.

Edit i see in the title is is for Avatar, as said its being re sized for the site, and is losing the animation, so its too big to use here, you would need to use an animation program to resize it yourself prior to using it here as an avatar.

thanks kool! I have to figure out the whole signature thing next! Sheesh!

side note: if you want, you can post the link to the image here, and i can try to re-size it for you.

I uploaded a moving avatar, but it only moves once and then it stops. Anyone know how to make it keep going?

[blackpup]

Gosh Wimbly11, I thought you would of had some help about this by now. Maybe the avatar is too large in size? Wish I could help you out, but I'm so clueless when it comes to techy things

[wimbly11]

haha, no help for moi I don't know either. It moves once, the cat taps her fingers. But she's supposed to keep tapping..but alas, she does not...

[blackpup]

I tried to poke your cat to get it moving, but it just sends me to your profile

I'm still so in aww of your profile pic

i think its because its too large, a few of mine have done that too in the past (i have a folder of funny avatars but some of them have never worked here )

Depends where you are linking it from too. I gotta find an avatar too.

Yes I have tried moving ones as well but they never work for me on here......
