The birthday bells don't always work, but this is the same for everyone, so we don't reimburse for them. See this old post:

you should disable it then honestly, it's hardly fair one user gets them and another doesn't, especially since they're going out their way to ask for them. fair enough you can't manually go through every user but i don't see anything wrong with kate asking (sry for being the party pooper that says we should get rid of them but we all love a fair time)

I would like anniversary TBT instead of birthday TBT, where you earn TBT Bells on your registration anniversary. People can’t change their registration anniversaries, but they can change their birthdays.

it'd be cool if the bot just worked :( i swear when i joined it used to, but yeah i guess that would be cool too

ftr, i do appreciate the birthday bells, i know you guys don't need to give us anything at all, so it's a kind gesture, i just mean it'd be cool if it worked for everyone, i know i'd be a bit put out if i didn't get any on my birthday and then asked and then got rejected, you know..

I agree, if it doesn't work then get rid of it, or improve the system. Give bday bells to people who you know are active, or if they check in that day.
I'm guessing there isn't a way to see if you got them or not? Like your transaction log won't say earned 70 tbt from gyroid right? I checked on my bday but I honeslty couldn't tell if I got them or not. I was planning on using those bells for orders too.

Alolan_Apples makes a good point too, anniversary registration bells would be nice of not bday bells.
 
Hey staff, I plan on posting a realllly long guide, and I would like it to be broken up in multiple posts rather than one or two HUGE posts. I think it'll make the guide esier to read if each part has its own post. So my questIon is, how much time is required to be in between each post to avoid double posting and post merging?
 
i believe its 15 minutes but that could be wrong idk
 
Hey, got a quick question if anyone can answer. I just created my own animated Animal Crossing signature with my town info and was wondering something. Am I not allowed to upload animated images for my signature? If I am allowed, how and what is the best way to upload it? Thanks!

Thanks Stella! I've tried using imgur, but it's really confusing. When I try to put in the image from imgur, the TBT says "invalid file." I'm not sure if I'm doing it right. So if someone could explain what I'm doing wrong, that would be great!

Double posting here. I'm also trying to figure out how to do this with animated avatars too. So I could really use some help explaining on how to do it. :)

When you upload the gif to Imgur, try right clicking the image and "Copy Image Address" ( the link should look something like: https://i.imgur.com/_____.gif ). You should be able to paste that link in your sig in a code like this:

[IMG]https://i.imgur.com/_____.gif[/IMG]

If it's an option given to you, make sure you un-check "Retrieve remote file and reference locally."

Assuming you've purchased the Animated Avatar add-on in the TBT Shop, the gif you want to use must be 100x100 pixels or smaller (Or 150 pixels wide, if you've also bought the width extension add-on). So you're probably gonna need to resize it down using a website or something!

Ah, I see what I'm doing wrong. The address I'm putting in is not right. How do I get it like that? Do I need to sign up for imgur to do that?

No I don’t think you need to be, can you maybe post the link of the page here? I can get the image address for you!

OK, I think I understand what I'm doing wrong. I'm uploading the picture from my desktop pictures instead of from a website. I thought when you said "address" it was the address of the image from igmur, not the address of the website the picture is coming from and being uploaded to imgur. I think I got that right? I'm not sure. So sorry for the confusion. This is all new to me. :/

Well I think you had it right the first time, you're gonna be copying the image address, not the link to the website. I was only asking for the link so that I could grab the image for you, lol sorry to confuse you. I'll put this in a spoiler to not have a wall past!

After you upload the pic to Imgur, you should be at a page that kinda looks like this:

jYRpLMm.png


Then hover over the image and right click on it to get this:

FmaxUqh.png


You can copy the image address from that, and then on TBT, you hit the image button in the signature settings (looks like:
d3732Zu.png
) and input the image address you just copied:

moqSOlq.png


and then it should automatically make a code that looks like:

[IMG]https://i.imgur.com/n3Zwtu2.jpg[/IMG]

Which becomes your image/gif!

n3Zwtu2.jpg



I really hope that made sense, but if it didn't, you can message me with the link to the picture on Imgur and I'll do it for you :]
 
OK, just one last question for right now and that will be it for awhile. XD

What's the best way to resize gif pictures? This way I can use animated pictures if I feel like a change every once in awhile. :)
 
Can i ask a question are we allowed to talk about emulators? I mean the ones you use to play any Animal Crossing counterpart
(eg. AC gamecube)
