beechie Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 No LOL Gobshite Just link to an offsite image by entering it in the following area in your control panel (eg a photobucket image) Link to off-site Avatar: Enter the URL of the location containing the Avatar image you wish to link to.

beechie Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 The idiot's guide as requested by Liam 1. Upload your gif to your photobucket account (assume you can do this) 2. Copy the link from here (Copy == Ctrl-C ) [nb single click selects the whole line to make life easy] 3. Open your profile from the 'Edit Your Profile' button 4. Paste the image to here (Paste == Ctrl-V ) 5. Submit - to save changes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chesterfield Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Whilst peoples new found fun of animated avatars is quite interesting, do they really have to be so big? Some are stretching the user info section of the page display. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
