Animated Avatars
Is it possible to use a GIF as an avatar have make it animated? (User Page) (talk)
 * It says on the help page that you can use any GIF as an avatar. You can try; per the help page, I'm pretty sure it'll work.

Uploading Problems
Whenever I upload an avatar, the avatar gets cut off by a white banner on the upper part and the picture's lower part is missing. Master D 17:13, July 9, 2011 (UTC)

You need to crop it to 500px X 500px

Doesn't work
For some reason, it simply doesn't work. The only place where my avatar changes is on the Preferences page. Everywhere else - my talk page(s), my profile, chats - my previous avatar persists.

The only exception to this is the default avatars. But whenever I upload a new one, it defaults to my old avatar. What gives? http://imageshack.us/m/15/6929/luckmanngrenadesignatur.png Luckmann 20:55, August 16, 2011 (UTC)
