    Hi All

    Noticed a few people with an animated GIF avatar, yet when I changed mine to one it's not displaying the animation, just a static image.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

    Not sure. Can you email your gif to the webmaster and we'll see if we can find the issue?

    i think if your animated gif is over a certain size, or gets resized automatically, the format is not gif89a? (animated?), it's a different gif;

    double check you r gif you are using doesn't exceed that max size /max width/height stuff.

    that's the headbang gif, right? i know it's good sized, i have that somewhere locally....funny as heck.

    yeah it is the headbang gif, felt it was appropriate given some of the forum topics at the moment.

    I will check the gif out on Monday for its size and try and sort it out or upload it to Steve if the size is fine.

    Nope, thankfully since I have moved on from the old position things are a lot clamer now, no longer working 18 hour days, just the standard 9 - 5 with the odd alert every now and again
