cholla Posted February 13, 2005 CID Share Posted February 13, 2005 Hi all: I put in a new avatar it is supposed to be animated.Its animation works on my PC but when I loaded it in my forum profile it is just a still shot.I would like some advice on getting the animation to work.It has to be possible because JustinOhioRR's avatar is animated.I have trouble loading images I'm still a newbie in this area of computing. So help me if you can .I also tried image shack to do this I still couldn't get it to work. Thanks Cholla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CA3LE Posted February 14, 2005 CID Share Posted February 14, 2005 make sure the demensions are correct otherwise the server will download and resize the picture width x height == 120x100 max Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cholla Posted February 14, 2005 Author CID Share Posted February 14, 2005 Hi all I guess by hosting you mean using Image Shack or Photo Basket I tried both. It still is not animated.When I put it in the forum Avatar either in the URL or my own picture spot .It is put in a GIF image but comes out a PNG image.You can check this by right clicking mouse & selecting properties.When I check the one you have this way they are GIF images.I even tested one of yours & it was animated when I put it in.What I need to know is how do I keep it from turning into a PNG image? If you mean something else by hosting let me know . Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cholla Posted February 15, 2005 Author CID Share Posted February 15, 2005 Hi .s1: In the post CA3LE made herehe said:make sure the demensions are correct otherwise the server will download and resize the picture width x height == 120x100 max The properties say it is 69 x 110 the height must be the problem. I will pm CA3le about this. Cholla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xs1 Posted February 15, 2005 CID Share Posted February 15, 2005 The dementions are fine, 120 by 110 is the max it can be, anything smaller then that will work fine, which yours is. But PM'in him never hurts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
