i made a animated .gif and i wanted to use it on the forums as my avatar but its to big and i was wondering if tehres anyway to resize it without remaking it?

Don't take it wrong, but you should try to compress it a bit... (or ask someone else to do it for you).
310+ kb is WAAAAY too much for an avatar, seriously :)

~!dylan!~, Hobbes, if you want frames to last longer do not recreate the frames with the same duration each time. Instead simply increase the duration of the frame you want to last longer. Also, clean up the graphics, redundant pixels are present in many frames and thus they are bigger then they need to be... Also reduce the colors. 256 colors are certainly not needed for such an animation...

I deleted more then identicial 10 frames and frames with only 1 pixel difference. Added a few frames for better animation, Edited a few also. And I recreated the last frame as red on blue is hard to read on certain monitors and for certain people and it also had many unneeded pixels (it even was 'animated', while it should be static).

fixed:
[Image: attachment.php?pid=423424]

;)

PS: and ~!dylan!~, do not use an attachment as avatar directly. Rather upload the attachment first! If this thread is pruned (and it will be) your avatar is gone...

;)

~!dylan!~, I wouldn't set your avatar as a thread attachment, this thread could get pruned at some point. I uploaded it to http://wefng.com/Anubis/absolute_final.gif for you
