You need an animated .GIF file thats smaller than 150x150 pixels or 19.5KB.

You either make 'em with a gif animation program

or download them from a web library

Have fun...

Same here 120x80 and 5k. "You may not upload animated images."

Must be a format thing.
I'd guess VBulletin sees certain files as just "GIF" animated or not.
Sorry I can't be more specific, I do networks not graphics or programmming.

Some of us newbies are having trouble with non animated ones....

Just had a play around, it must be siomething that's changed in a VBulletin update.
If you already had one, it's stayed but you can no longer upload one or link to a URL.

Eh up Blah Blah, how come you're still only showing as a "Registered User" if you have a 750? You'll be wanting to talk to Terry about that.
