Avatar Gif and Placement (Help)

[Fyubr]

Even when I allow gifs it still freezes the gif and makes it a still picture, is there a way to keep a gif and let the forums resize it for you? Or if I make the size bigger it "Your attachment couldn't be saved. This might happen because it took too long to upload or the file is bigger than the server will allow." Even when its above the gif size

then picture, is it possible to move the picture right under the userrank?

Thanks for any help

Sadly, no.

Gif images are resized. But for gif animations, only the first frame will appear.

Think of the forum, if animations with a lot of frames are resized...

It'd bring the site to a crawl, I'd imagine.

Like I said even at a unlimited requirement it still only shows first frame
How do I get gifs to work?

Also like I said is there a way to change the location of the avatar on the side of the post like I described in more detail in the first post

As I said, you can't. An animation will always resize to a picture, not an animation.

There're plenty of free gif animation resizers, though.

There are even some sites where you can do it, online, I believe.

As for the avatar thing, I must be being even more dense than usual, today, because I can't visualise what you're asking for.

But what I mean is I have the forum set to never resize any image yet the gif still is just a single frame and

Move the picture above and maybe like right under the posts

You've checked the sizes, etc. in Admin>Attachments & avatars>Avatar settings?

With the weird bit, if you look at this code in your theme's Display.template.php file:

// Show the member's custom title, if they have one.
if (isset($message['member']['title']) && $message['member']['title'] != '')

if (isset($message['member']['group']) && $message['member']['group'] != '')
echo '

// Don't show these things for guests.
if (!$message['member']['is_guest'])
{
// Show the post group if and only if they have no other group or the option is on, and they are in a post group.

if (!empty($settings['show_user_images']) && empty($options['show_no_avatars']) && !empty($message['member']['avatar']['image']))
echo '

You can move the block of code up, down, whatever, to your heart's content.

Read my sig, though, before you start on that, ay?
