1-0-0-1-0-0-1 Posted November 8, 2012 Author Share Posted November 8, 2012 All right, so I go on hiatus for months and then I come back and find......this. I'm horribly confused but it seems to be new, so at least I'm not alone! Aah, quick question about the avatars. Those of you who know me know that a lot of mine were gifs with transparent backgrounds. When I tried to upload the avatar on the right (yes, an old one) it gave me an ugly white background and not the beautiful transparency I was so used to. D: Is this fixable or is there a different file format I can use or am I just out of luck? Welcome back! Can you post one of your old transparent avatars in here? Just want to see if I can figure out why it isn't working. Thanks 73. :DAaand here's an old avatar. The board puts a thin white border around the avatar. It might be interfering with the transparency of your GIF image. I've noticed this board seems to like PNG files better than GIFs, so try this one. It will still put the white border around it, which would probably make the transparency kind of pointless, but give it a shot. It's not animated yet, but I just want to see if the transparency works. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v318/1001001/photo-10790.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noisorroCmrotS Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 I know a lot of hard work has gone into the upgrade but I missed the explanation as to "why" it was necessary? It certainly couldn't have been because the old look was "old" because this new look is ...ahem... really stinky. Despite what you say in your sig, you ARE friendlyfloridian, who was a pain in the ass. Ergo, your opinion of the new board is moot. And speaking of stinky, don't you have some spore juice to grow or something? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the tip though. I think until I find out a way to make a non-GIF animation (which I don't think is really possible; not with my software anyways, and I don't suppose the forum supports .swf) I'll just tack on a background. I appreciate your help! I'm sure this is as much of a headache for you guys as it is for us. ^^; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is obvious that when I registered here at work, which is a large company with thousands of employees, there is also other people here that also browse this board. So, of course it would appear I am some other user because we all come from the same IP within the corporate firewall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
