When I try to make my old .jpg Arrow Revolver icon my avatar the forum prevents it, stating that the ".png image has the wrong extension."
I guess that's not a big deal, but I was thinking of making an animated avatar. I don't even know if anyone here has an animated avatar or even anyone on Mabiguru, but I was wondering if this function could be implemented. ;o
I haven't tried uploading anything animated, or anything other than .jpg though.

It is possible to make an animated avatar (.gif), my mabiguru account had a moving "X". I think you have to upload it through an uploader site like imageshack or something.

If I'm correct it has to be in PNG format, and I don't think PNG supports animation like GIFs do.
Don't quote me on this though, I'm not 100% sure.

some people on here have animated .gif avatars.
I never had any problem uploading any particular file type (gif, jpg, png). Maybe if the extension was just renamed instead of properly saved as that file type it might cause a problem.
