I think I know how to get it working.
#1 upload your gif to a image host
#2 Go to your avatar page and delete current avatar
#3 Click Choose file
#4 Paste link in open file window
#5 Click choose file again
#6 This time your temporary internet files folder should visable
#7 Copy the address to your temporary internet folder, open my computer, find your temp folder by paste link.
#8 Delete all files inside, you will need to go one level up to the parent folder and delete any temporary files there too.
#9 Log out of SRK, delete SRK’s cookies and log back in
#10 Cross fingers, Upload avatar
Not having any luck with that either.
I’ve deleted my avatar and am now trying to upload a standard .jpg (below) but its still showing the old broken avatar.

Edit: After relogging into SRK the new .jpg shows up. I’m gonna sit on this one for a while because I’m getting frustrated trying to make the .gifs work.
Logging out, then in, and then reuploading the av worked for me.
Does my Av show a man…or a robot?
Weird…I still see my old avatar.
I logged out and logged back in.
The struggle continues. Whatever I do, it just shows me my old avatar, even if I delete it. If I fail to meet the restrictions, it won’t even let me attempt to upload, so that’s not an issue.
Edit - It worked after posting here. Clearly this thread is the key.
Just to be on the safe side, does my avatar show up as Cammy sitting criss-cross applesauce?
