Poncho_ Posted February 3, 2019 Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 An easy guide on how to make gif avatars for the forums ________________________________________________________ Recommendations: Resolution: Width: 127px; Height: 127px File size: <50kb ________________________________________________________ Any short gif that is on a loop. There are a few places to find some good gifs but here are some I have found: R/PerfectLoops Giphy#1 Giphy#2 ________________________________________________________ What to do if the gif is >50kb: Compress the gif I.E Make it shorter and/or quicker. Delete duplicate frames from the gif. Make the resolution smaller. You can do this on a couple of websites however I would recommend these sites: EZ gif (This is the best one to use) Gif compressor Picasion ________________________________________________________ Uploading to the forums: Go to your profile. Click "This" icon. Make sure "Import from URL" is selected. Paste image URL into box. To upload an image from URL you will need to upload the image to a website that keeps URL permanently Imgur Pintrest Discord imgbb ________________________________________________________ Any errors will be fixed k0les, Oaky, The Caretaker and 2 others 3 1 1 Link to comment
