.GIF avatars

[scootermcrad]

I noticed on the HAMB that some people have .GIF files (short video clips) as their Avatar. I was wondering how to pull this off? I have a .GIF file that fits the required pixel size, but not the file size limit. It's 59x78 but is 57K. Can it be save as another format or something so it will work?

Thanks!

scooter- you have to host the file on another site. let me know if you need help doing that.

Hey Ed,

I hosted it on photobucket no problem, but the file size is still more than the allowable 5000 bites. It's less than the 80x80 pixel area though. Is there another format it can be saved as that will reduce the file size or do I just have to use a .gif editor and make it look crappy before it will work?

Thanks!
