Allow gifs as avatars.
Pretty simple request really, I don't see why not.

Edit: Allow animated gifs as avatars

Why would filesize become an issue? For one, there is a filesize limit and two, you can host the image on a different site and link it.

The option for animated avatars was there before... I think it was disabled when the forum got upgraded.

Hmmm may be it is disabled by default to reduce the load time of pages? Also Firefox is taking a lot of CPU for displaying animated gifs.

I really don't see a problem here, the forum allows you to upload .gif and .jpg, as well as add a link from another server...

Haha, if she does then you can contact an admin about it. I'm sure it won't be a problem as long as it is not going to give us seizures...
