    Animated Avatars?

    I'm trying to have this avatar on DHRacer.com but it tells me it's not the right format.... that's stupid because it is a GIF, anyways, why does it tell me that and can I change it to a .jpeg, .jpg or .swf without loosing its animation???

    Changing it to jpg or jpeg would lose the animation. you could change it to a SWF, and then save it as a GIF again... and then try making it an avatar

    import into flash i think. it should be able to just extract frames form the animated gif and stick them into a swf, then you could export to animated gif.

    but what would be the point?

    It should remove anything that dhracer.com put in there to make it appear 'invalid'.
