Please don't tease me for asking a noob question, but I was wondering how you put an animated avatar on here. Do you upload every single frame? I have no idea whatsoever.

A question for you: do you know how to make an animated [GIF format] avatar? If not, google for some tutorials. GIMP would be a good program to start with. If yes, upload your avatar to an image hosting site, acquire its URL, and paste it into the Link off-site: box in your avatar profile setting here at GT and then submit your changes.

No, I do not, but I fell embarresed that I didn't google it, but I figured there maybe a specific way to do it here. But my current avatar is linked offsite.
