    Resolved [RESOLVED] Animated Pictures as Avatars

    Hi,

    I'm unable to set animated gif as my avatar.
    But I've seen many animated avatars on this forum. Wonder how they managed to do that

    I could be wrong, but I think it hasn't been possible to upload them since an upgrade of the forum software - so the people who've got them have had them since before then.

    Actually......

    Power Posters have the ability to use animated images as their avatars (as do Admins and mods). It is a benefit of being a power poster. You become a Power Poster at 2048 posts.
