Avatar help.

I'm having trouble with my avatar, I switched it to a picture of Murky the baby murloc, but it's supposed to be animated. Could you tell me how to make it animated?

Is it too big for the avatar requirements..? The server may have removed the frames from it to allow it to meet the requirements...

A very ugly version here. Basically it is much less smooth (it has a quarter of the number of frames) and 80 colours instead of 255 (256 with transparency). I can't do much about it because the GIF is a large GIF and it is very hard to compress a GIF, especially an animated one.*

That should work though...I hate dealing with GIF's that are animated. :/

Looks like a ****ing murloc on crack O_o
Is it possible for you to slow it down a tad? If not, than I'm fine with the still frame I have.

Not actually sure what happened there, it should've stayed the same framerate...

If memory serves, it should go a bit slower when you actually upload it...
