Avatar gif help?
« on: July 16, 2013, 01:05:15 am »
Whenever I go to change my avatar, what shows up when I click to upload that file, this happens.
And after I click change profile, this shows up and nothing comes up for the avatar.

Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

If you want to use a gif from your computer, make sure that the correct box is checked. Under where you change your avatar, you'll see something that says, "Personalized Picture", "I have my own pic", and "I will upload my own picture". If you want to use something that is saved onto your computer, check the box that says "I will upload my own picture". That usually seems to be the case; hope this helps!

I already had that. I can upload pictures, it's just that it's not letting me use gifs. ;w;

Try uploading the gif on uploading sites like Tinypic (http://tinypic.com) and use that link instead.

How big is your gif file? There is a size limit to what you can really upload. Try resizing it to about 200x200.. Or if possible 100x100.
Another picture sharing website that I recommend as well is photobucket
I Stalk from time to time...I have moved on to other things but do miss this place. Good times
