OK why wont my gif avatar move?

[hcppam]

I have coped several gif (moving pics) and tried to use them, but I get no motion...Anyone can you tell me in layman's terms what I'm doing wrong?

I'd like to know too, but I'm techno-challenged

~ but if you figure it out I would love to know how to do it too!

You mean like thinking there's a bug on your screen because one is crawling in the corner? LOL

When the site resizes an animated picture, the picture stops being animated. If you want the picture to work, you have to make sure that it's well below the maximum file size requirements before you upload it.

To everyone who hates animated avatars: Yes, they're annoying. But that doesn't mean that knowledge should be suppressed!

I've turned off avatars in my profile settings, so I don't even see them any more.

Ok, educate an old guy pretty please? Doesn't that turn off all the pictures or just the animated ones? I really know nothing about computers.

Really, I'm a computer idiot.
