Post by: BillTodd on January 03, 2013, 05:55:43 PM

Just noticed my animated gif images no longer work - have the setting been changed?

Hi Bill

Nothing has changed server side. Can you post a link that has your animated gifs in it? How about the smilies? Do those work for you?

hi eric,

i've posted a couple recently ;

madmodder.net/index.php/topic,7977.0.html

they both seem to have been converted to static gifs

Bill,
The first example you give is static but the second one is animated.

Sorry,  put that down to failing memory. :doh:

Both are animated: the first was converted to static when embedded

the second I initially tried to embed it but since that failed I later linked it.


So, linking works OK, but the 'light-box', or whatever you call it,  in which the graphic is displayed is converting the animated gif to a static gif (with no reduction in size of the file)
