    Default Avatar not working?

    I tried putting up a custom avatar I made (from http://i.imgur.com/5V7rx4T.gif) but it's just not showing up on my profile or posts I'm making. Help?

    It seems way too big. The board's software won't resize it, so it might be that the blank space is the upper left corner, which is transparent.

    Size. It is showing up, but since the top left 120x120 pixels are all transparent, it looks like nothing.

    Scale it down to 120x120 and use that.

    Also, don't use avatars that are bigger than the board can support. The whole image gets loaded (or tries to get loaded), which eats up people's bandwidth. It is the same reason that animations are against the rules for signatures and avatars. Okay, one of the reasons. The other is that animated images are hard to moderate.

    Oh okay. I just assumed it would be automatically resized. I'll fix it when I get back on my computer.

    EDIT: ok it's fixed now thanks!
