hi, I found a .GIF that I really want to use as my forum avatar, only problem is that an avatar file has to be 20k or less and this one weighs in at 20.7k. I don't know much about .gif's so I wouldn't have a clue how to shave off that .7
Anyone? |

You could host it somewhere else and use the URL on the forum avatar options. Its a nice way around the limit. |

Or shrink it a tiny bit
Or reduce the quality a bit. |

They do, but I imagine he's using a gif so it's animated. |

It depends on the content of the picture if jpeg or gif, serves better for good quality and small size. |
