kennyfoggo 0 Posted May 16, 2009 Looking at the properties for your image EM, it says itr is a jpg. unless you uploaded a jpg, the forum software converted it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Chops 7 Posted May 16, 2009 Yes, whereas if you look at knobhead''s animated avatar, it''s pointed to:http://www.carrowroad.net/carrow1/avatars/members/wiz4aopt.gifSo the answer would be to call it from an external URL rather than upload it via the Forum software.

The Fish Seller 0 Posted May 16, 2009 You cannot upload the ani.gif directly to this site, you''ll need to upload it to photobucket or a similar image hosting site then copy the code that site provides into your signature.eg [***]http://www.promotion.com.tw/d201m_ani.gif[/***] where ***=imggives[img]http://www.promotion.com.tw/d201m_ani.gif[/img] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kennyfoggo 0 Posted May 16, 2009 It must be able to be done wiz has an animated avatar ... The forum converts Gif to Jpg ... I have tried to hotlink to a couple of animated gifs I have and they won''t display, keeps reverting to the hosted one here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I''ve tried adding it as a normal photo avatar but it just has the black screen you see before you....[/quote]Here''s the trick EM.Cut and paste your animated URL in the normal way into the upload avatar box, BUT don''t click upload............just scroll down to ''save changes'' at bottom right of page, and click there.
