Title: Animated GIF Avatars?
Post by: game_guy on April 05, 2012, 10:30:19 PM

I dunno if they're purposely not allowed or if its just an SMF issue, but everytime I try to change my avatar to a GIF, it gets converted to a PNG. Even if I specify my own URL. Are gifs not allowed?

It's probably because it's a pony. But .gifs are allowed.

Does it have to resize at all? Mine was originally too big and auto-resized when taken straight from my computer. Then, it didn't move at all. ;9

However, when I shrunk the .gif to the RMRK size manually (rather then let it auto-resize), it seemed to work just fine. :o

At least I think that's what I did...

If you're just trying to use the same gif that's in your sig, it's one pixel too wide. It auto-resizes like yuyu said, and converts it to png.

He's joking, you're allowed whatever avatar you want. If Bio was able to get away with having unicorn penis in his, you're certainly allowed to have MLP stuff (*coughevenifitmakesyoulooklikea6yearoldgirlcough*). The only reason why the GIF didn't work was because of RMRK's auto-size feature setting it to be a PNG instead. The right size won't trigger it, thus won't convert it.

I know everyone's just giving me shit. I honestly could care less. All I can do as a brony is love and tolerate the hell out of everybody else.

Tolerating isn't a good thing.

Its like saying that you don't like someone but you tolerate them anyway.

Also you can love everyone without being a brony.

Jus sayin.

What? Tolerance is a good thing.
It's the courage to say "Hey, I don't approve of your lifestyle, but I'm not going to haze you over it."
I wish we had more people like that in the world. I mean, it'd be great if everyone 100% approved of everything, but tolerance isn't a bad step.

That being said, I don't like My Little Pony, but I don't care if you like it. Just, keep it a little more on the dl, please? It's a little annoying.

How have I not been keeping it on the down low? I changed my avatar to a pony, its not like I was shoving it in anyone's face. It was other members who brought up my bronyship status.

And the whole tolerance thing, its better then hating or trolling.

Oh, my bad. I got you confused with the other brony. We're cool.

My mum always told me that tolerating is simply putting up with something that is negative. Accepting is actually acknowledging that someone has problems or faults, and loving them anyway. Tolerating is putting up with behaviour simply to be poilte, rather than because you like them or give a shit about them. Thats always how I saw it, anyway. Sorry you misunderstood me, you jackasses :V

Just kidding but yeah. We don't hate you, we just think ponies and bronies are stupid.

It's not specifically you, there's some other MLP fan on the forums that has been posting .gifs whenever they get the chance, and it's getting pretty annoying.
