Why is it that some people's GIF avatars work but others don't? Mine won't animate, and I know other people have had this problem. They are under the size restrictions, but they still don't work.

Mine was not working so I changed it TODAY and it started working. Also I think it depends on the image. The one I currently have moves I tried a different one from same site different movement and it did not work.

Consider yourself lucky if you can get an animated avatar to work properly with the forum software. For security reasons apparently, the ZeroForum software will accept and recompile all avatar and image uploads to its own format thus possibly rendering certain animated images to not function properly.I've seen some work and some not work. If you find out a certain combination for success, post it up.
