    Actually, I meant their programmers are probably not working until Monday, so expecting a fix on Saturday or Sunday seems unlikely.

    They told us the same thing 2 weeks ago...

    So apparently they're off every weekend. <shrug>

    And what do they do in the week??
    If they don't fix it in the weekend neither the week, let's just gess they will never get it fixed...

    I'm guessing they work hard during the week. This is a very complex site with a huge membership, and I have no idea how complex the GIF issue is. Neither do you. It's also not the only thing on their plate.

    I'm sure they'd love to get it fixed, if for no other reason than to stop all the bitching. But beyond that, they understand it's an important issue for the site, so I kind of doubt if they're just ignoring it.

    I don't.

    My information is that they'll work once this has been fixed, as we're keeping the original files and the current issue is that they're not displayed correctly due to some resizing changes.

    I'll let you know when anything changes.

    The first two quotes look to me like a staff member saying something pretty concrete...

    Yes, a progress report would be nice, just to let people know they are indeed working on it.

    I note that even old animated avatars are broken on the beta site, which is no doubt related to the resizing issue they're trying to fix. (They're a different size there, and thus, not cached from before the new code.)

    Please can we have some clarification of what is happening?

  • Hi, sorry - there aren't any news about this yet. We are aware of the issue and will address it. As I've said before, this may take a while, and it will still take longer.

    Thanks again for stepping up to the the plate as a red icon. :)

    What was wrong with the old resizing code that caused you to feel the need to change it? I thought it worked pretty well, though some animated GIFs didn't animate on their smaller versions (though at least they didn't animate badly, like they once did).

    But, i appreciate it that you tell us the truth...

    Thanks!

    instead of advertisement banners you must post up sing at any account page: "Don't re-upload gif avatars!!!" i have got so cool avatar((((( very sad



  • Thanks for all the info that's been provided! Although I miss my animated GIFs I understand that these things take time and will be patient :)

    Hopefully the problem is resolved soon!

  • tag :P

    waiting for my drummer :D

    So do i :p
    Seems like a nice gif.

  • Hmm

    It says that my aniated gif is like 3kb while it should be 300, that being said would it e possible for the uploading process to fail at some point and that being the reason for not working avatars?

    The same applies when i upload cd covers and pics through the music manager.

    So maybe the upload connection with the server gets cut for whatever reason

    Victory or Valhalla!

    You make a good point there...
    I haven't noticed it but it can be the reason.
