I finally was able to buy the Avatar Animation and I just found a gif that might fit nicely in my PFP. but whenever I upload the gif (both with url and saved photos) it always appears as a static image. How do I make it move?
 
Well the gif I added is my current avata so more than likely no lol


You may have to use something like paint or a site where you can edit images in order to make it 100x100 pixels. Then you’ll have to re-upload it as your avatar. Sorry if I’m not much help on this. I’m not really an artsy type of person.
 
I will have to try and find one then

Ok, I figured it out. I just used a website and got it to work. Thanks, spike!
 
Another tip, if you upload a 100?100 avatar (or 150?100 with the width extension) and it doesn't work, it likely means that the size of the GIF is too big. That's what happened with my avatar, I couldn't make it wide because the file size was too large.

I think in your case you would be safe, since your avatar has a short animation :)
