Bug Can't Upload a GIF as my Profile Picture

[Johna]

I am trying to change my profile picture to a GIF, but it either loads forever and then nothing happens, or I get this error:


The GIF image is 400x400px and 2.38mb

That's weird, however, @Malcolm has been doing recent maintenance on the server recently - perhaps an issue related to that? Either that or their is a certain limit on avatar sizes that isn't made clear when uploading. Double-check the GIF's properties(file extension, size, etc.) and keep trying every so often, as a GIF should be uploaded.

Could you share the GIF here?

I guess the GIF dimensions or size was too big, cause I reduced the size and it works now.

Now it's 296x296px and 1.29mb

Wonderful! Awesome you got it working.
