    i think we are, just depends on the file size because a lot of animations piss all over the 20k limit

    I got a message telling me I'm not allowed to upload animated av's. :confused:

    Yeah what's going on there?
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    seems to work okay for me, so it must be a usergroup permission, I'll go have a look - btw if you post these in TheSite.org problems you'll get Jamie (our systems manager) helping as well

    All sorted down, the avatar upload permission defaulted to no for animated after the last boards update

    as a little side note to this thread - any chance of upping the av size limit? 20k is mighty small...
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    It's not too small man, it's just about putting the effort in to do what you can within the limits - a small increase wouldn't really make a huge difference, and there's no way we will have a large increase. After all we still have about 30% of visitors with dial-up and forums are inaccessible enough as it is.

    Wow, i didnt know this even existed anymore lol
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    yea 20kb sucks :(
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Dialup is odd now as its hardly any cheaper is it?
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Dial up is 56kb or 28kb

    I dont think i could ever attempt to use the web with dial up ever again


    i think he ment the file size for an av not dial-up speed
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I still use dial-up.

    I suck. :(
