Well you asked if I had a link to the gif on my forum, so I uploaded the gif on my forum and here is the link: (warning: contains spoilers to the ending of Little Nightmares I and II) rats-that-strike.proboards.com/thread/134/gif-avatar-testingI think thats what you meant. Even then the gifs dont seem to work but not sure. I did 2 gifs since I couldn't decide which was better, so either one works. I can pick one if thats easier. I did an Inspect Element on the images in the thread you linked. Both images in the first post are showing as PNG, not GIF. In the 2nd post, the still image is also showing as a PNG. The low resolution one, although animated, is also showing as a PNG. None of those 4 images actually have the GIF file extension.

You'll only see the full gif by opening it, like a regular image attachment, we generate the thumbnail and display it in the post.

I think its working now! Thank all of you so much! I uploaded the gifs to my custom theme images, then put the link as my avatar, and it worked! For some reason, a couple of the gifs dont work, so it must be how I made the gifs (I was trying a lot of different things lol) Thank you again!
I just have one more question: How can I make my avatar a gif on forums that aren't mine, like proboards support? For some reason it only works when i use the link, and not uploading from my gallery. Am I allowed to use the link from my forum for my avatar on other PB forums?

Hi,
You can use your linked avatar on other PB forums. Gif avatars must be linked.
