Er... avatar problem...
Not stirring up more poo, honest! I think maybe there's been some... er... collateral damage affecting innocent law-abiding folk such as
myself, maybe as a result of some recent changes to avatars. Maybe.
Look at poor Domo-kun there... <===
Once he was happy and animated, waving his cute fuzzy arms up and down, but now the poor fellow is frozen stiff as if he's seen a ghost. Funny
thing is the version in my photo archive, from where the avatar is sourced, still appears to be OK. I've even tried to change my avatar to
something else in the profile, then switch back to Domo, but no dice  .
Other funny thing is the avatar version has been stretched to 150 pixels wide, wheras the original in my photo archive is a compact 100 (because
I've always been so avatar-size conscious). Perhaps this strange stretching has something to do with the distinct lack of animatedness?
Anyone with animated gif avatars have the same problem?
Cheers,
Liam

He's put on weight and is therefore less mobile! Simples

Oh dear...
The u2u's re the avatars are automated....btw
It would seem as though the automation has set all at 150, so the smaller ones are enlarged to be 150 .....
I will let ChrisW know ....and see if he can alter the script......and get the .gifs back

The mental gymnastics a landlord will employ to justify immoral actions is clinically fascinating. Just because something is legal doesn't make
it moral.

Hey no fair!! How you do?
Thought I'd sussed it by downloading an animated gif editor, resizing my source image to 150 pixels wide, uploading it and making it my avatar,
thus bypassing the automatic, animation disabling avatar resizing robot!
Alas I failed

Sorry guys... slight flaw in my plan I guess.
Let me see if I can write a workaround.

Quite ironic really the day my avatar was filmed it was the CEC turbo of madteg that went home on the back of an AA truck I drove mine home

Ah dont worry about it, Chris - it's no big deal. I was just having a laugh about it really.
But... er... do feel free to worry about it enough to fix it.
If you like.
When you've got time.
