Higher quality squirrel avatars, what a great New Year present, thanks admin!

I wilol upload my squirrel torturing avatar then...

<hangs head in shame>Try now</hangs head in shame>

Of course this was never broken and you were all wrong. While fixing your wrongness I may also have bumped up the size of avatars to 120 x 120 and the max file size to 30kb. But as nothing was brokent then of course I haven't actually fixed or changed anything. Uploading animated avatars may magically work again now without me actually doing anything. Try it and see how wrong you all were.

Silly me. I must have been clicking on the "Fail to upload button". You're right. Now I try again, it works.



Ta muchly for doing ... highlighting my error.

So ..when can we have online images back eh?... or perhaps restrict it to those with 'godlike' status (but not the newbies obviously)

So how come TB1 doesn't animate when used as a avatar

[BrilloPad]

mine still works. as it always did.

clearly the stress of all the trolls has got to the mods. have a holiday - moderate the f4j forum for 2 weeks...

[Troll]

An admin after mein own heart.... .

You are admin and I claim my 5 live mice

[DiscoStu]

I get the same error

[BrowneIssue]

- Right click on ferret's rude Mona Lisa.
- Save a copy on my machine as mona.gif
- User CP
- Edit Avatar
- Use Custom Avatar
- Option 2 - Upload Image From Your Computer
- select file mona.gif that is 64 x 64 and 1935 bytes
- select 'Save changes'
- "You may not upload animated images."

Ergo,

You can NOT have animated avatars, although ferret (and probably other administrators) can.

Maybe it can beat Basinstoke

Basingstoke.

Some of the other top city names look pretty interesting though

[AtW]

Yep, mods are very good on this forum. Certainly good to me

[BrilloPad]

In the UserCP you will see:

Note: The maximum size of your custom image is 80 by 80 pixels or 19.5 KB

As long as the animated gif is within these limits then you will be fine. BrilloPad and others have animated avatars?

Indeed I do - furthermore I would like to say (as I do at every oportunity) how wonderful the mods here are. This is following my experiences as a f4j forum mod whose members look positively normal relative to some of those here. All they do is climb cranes, get arrested, etcetc.
