Hi Guys

Does anyone know what limits there are in respect of the avatar?

AFAIK, the pic dimensions can be no more than 150x100.

But what about file size and/or number of frames in an animated gif file? Nice But's must have about two hundred frames!

I am, if you haven't already guessed /pan, looking to update my avatar with something snazzier (although there's not much snazzier than a Mitsubishi Tredia!). I don't intend on creating anything that huge (I believe that there are still people on dial-up after all, although my broadband is more and more occasionally resembling dial-up :inquisiti), but just something that will hopefully be better!

have you tried switching it off, and on again?

seriously: i'd double check and try to re-upload the original - they work, as you can see with mine.

Only the first frame was kept when scaling from 120x120 to 100x100 for the avatar...

Hopefully this will work:
