Title: Problems adding video avatar

HELP. I have been trying to add a video avatar I made. I used photobucket as per the instructions. If I put in the link that is for share URL or Direct link I get an error basically saying the link is bad. If I use the forums one that ends in jpg then I run out of space and the jpg part is cutoff. Not sure what else to try. Thanks in advance :)

ok its a flash file thats why it wont work. For avatars can only be jpg, gifs or pngs.

What about this one: http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii164/l...th_46b02fab.jpg

When I try to put that one in, it stops after the f, like I only have a certain amount of space.

Another question, how do you guys have the avatars move if they are jpgs? Are the things by everyone's screenname with the moving scenes avatars??? If not, what are those called and how can I put that on my screenname?

Thanks for your patience. Although I used to work in computer tech support, a lot of this stuff is new to me. :)

That other link is a jpg, but only that pic, it wont move and it is still a flash file, and it probably doesnt have enough room. The moving avatar next to my name is an animation gif.

Thanks Chyna!! I'm going to go research how to make an animated gif.

Done. Hubby was a HUGE help!! It was funny to see him helping me choose all of the frames to use for the kissing sequence :lmao: He is a total Sci-Fi/Sports/Action movies type male, not into romantic movies or anything at all so this was extra amusing. :)
