I'm not sure what the problem is. I would assume that animated .gif's have been disabled, but I don't think that's the case.

Dear highly respected, wonderful, beautiful, intelligent, handsome, wise, nice, sweet and powerful TopHatter.

Does one dear to ask, if perhaps someday - at you convenience, of course - that there might be at solution, so that some day WABs settings will allow animated avatars?

Just a polite enquiry. Nothing important. Take your time. I can easily wait. And wait. And wait. And wait. And wait. And wait....

Mine's an animated gif too, and a cool one. But it just shows up still.

Persons belonging to the 'registered' usergroup do not have the privilege of uploading animated avatars. Avatars, for everybody, are restricted to 100x100px. If your avatar requires resizing, it may freeze in the resizing process.

Oh. No animated avatars. I guess I'm just a registered user. Thank you...

It's a privilege awarded for contributions to the board (750 posts), an incentive, if you will.
