EdJ0307 Loc: out west someplace
 
This is my attempt at an animated gif. I was hoping it would work as my avatar but I guess not. I wonder how other people get their avatars to be animated.

GIF files are an option in your profile. There may be some file size limitations, but I just loaded a GIF file for my avatar. It shows in my profile, hope it works here.

Edited to add, it works just fine. It's subtle, just watch for a few seconds.

Pretty subtle all right!

I think the problem is your file size. Try this one:

The one Green has running is an outright animation. Gotta be pretty large file.

Takes longer to run than Ed's and is more fluid.

OK, that looks like it works. Thank you, TexasDon. But how did you do that? And I did notice that your avatar blinks.
