How To Change Your Avatar, Mini Profile Background Color, & Background Image

[theshadowknows]

Hi, I changed my avatar to a .GIF image and I can see it works fine if I open it as the image in my Firefox browser but it doesn't work on the site. Could be the file though so until someone else tries a .GIF avatar we may not know where the problem lies.

Don't worry too much. Cheers.

It's likely the avatar upload system. If you use the image upload link in the member menu, you should be able to paste the link into your avatar settings. Though I've had some issues with gif uploads with it. If you were to host the gif elsewhere, however, it should work.

I do have a copy of the upload system script SkepticOverlord used for ATS, but I've hit a bit of a standstill while trying to implement it. That and mobile are priority.
