Hi, i did search but nothing i read worked...

Are animated Gifs just for premium members? I created a small gif 100x100 but i get this message "You may not upload animated images."

It's not important, i was just trying to figure it all out. 👍
 
From the FAQ

" The image’s dimensions can be no larger than 100Ă—100 pixels and 20KB in size (the maximums are increased to 120Ă—120 pixels and 25KB for Premium users"

I think your gif is violating the 20KB size limit.

No mate, i tried to upload one 50x50 and only 11kb, still nothing. Thanks though 👍
 
I don't think they are just for Premium Members, some of the preset avatars are animated if I recall...
 
Yeah, there are definitely people who have gif avatars without premium. Hopefully Jordan or one of the mods will pop in and help out shortly.
 
Yes, normal members can upload animated GIF avatars; I'm not sure why you would see that message. There may be some type of issue with the avatar file. You could post the image here or in the avatar thread and someone can check it out or re-process the image for you.
 
Thanks for the help fellas, i've tried all different kinds of gifs both from GTplanet, google and ones i made using a few different programs, none work.


The smallest one i tried was 40x40 and 2.2kb and got and always do get the "You may not upload animated images."


No big deal 👍
 
Wait, that's the error message that it gives when you attempt to upload a GIF to your profile photo (as opposed to as an avatar). Are you trying to do that?
 
I'd take it over the thread that Jordan mentioned. Those guys can work wonders.
 
Host it on a site like imageshack and link here!

Toronado may be on to something here; you can't use an animated GIF as your profile picture (that's not the same as your avatar).

Make sure you're uploading your avatar image on this page.

Okay, which is which? The profile picture is the one on your GTPlanet page, right? And your avatar is the one you see when the person posts?
 
Okay, so then which is the OP talking about? Because I have seen people like Mih have an animated Flareon as their avatar.
 
Toronado`s avatar is a... a... a crying pony.

Toronado`s profile photo is:
profilepic75653_51.gif

which is NOT animated at all.
