Hey LolaGurl. How did you get the pictures in your avatar to change like that? It's pretty cool!

you just need to make an animated .gif file and use that as your custom avatar.

You're about to be soooo disappointed in me, Dave. How do I make an animated gif file? Oh, hang on, are we stealing someone's thread again? Wnat me to create a new thread or is it reasonably straight forward?

Sabi

I'd looooove to know how to do it too!!!

all that an animated .gif file is - is a simple slow-playing movie file really. To create one, you have to make each frame, they have to be the same size and lastly, you need a piece of software that will let you save them together as 1 animated .gif file. http://www.download.com/IrfanView/30...ml?tag=lst-4-1 - here's one that looks good and is free.
