Is it a GIF or WHAT?

[olivesman]

My avatar (Laurel & Hardy) was a gif file but I don't know how to make it move when using it here. How did you do that?

try checking your URL address

I'll give it a shot but I'm not 100% sure I know what you mean. If I downloaded a gif from a website do I just point my avatar at that site?

k. that didn't work either.

Go To the web site and right click on the image go down to copy URL address and then paste it into your D.V. avatar. But make sure the image is moving when you copy the address.

GEEKS confuse me! What ever happened to being satisfied with smoke signals and a telegram???

I get the message "you can not link to this type of image"

I've found if I use Google Images to find pictures and then try to post them here directly from the search, I will get that message. HOWEVER, if I go to the webpage that the image is on and copy the image from there, I get better results.

If you will give me the link to the location of this image, I will see if I can determine why it is loosing its

animation feature.

I just made mine with a gif animator program and made it small enough to upload to my profile. There is about 4 to 5 pictures in it. Yes that is me in it!
