Size limit in the forum software is set100K for an avatar. A 100x100 pixel avatar should work fine.

Please try to remember people you are conversing with an idiot

I found an avatar on an avatar site that I quite like but just need to know how to get it from there onto here. it is an animated one if that makes any difference ?

Download it to your computer first.

Also if the file size is greater than 100 mb use a resizing tool.....plenty just google.

I have managed to do all the finding and downloading to computer but I can only find the options to change a photo in my control panel and nothing that mentions an animated avatar.

Also when I download it I can only see a GIF and no animation.

Remember you are dealing with an idiot here

Sorry, but not quite correct as I change my camera photo to an avatar. Size was/is 110x110, 73.80K. Also when I uploaded it just a few minutes ago it told me I could upload to 200k size.

And one has to say, very quick less than (2 minutes) the 10 minutes wait that was also mentioned in the during the uploading

Yes, I recommended 200k for this sometime ago and it was implemented when I saw some limits that caused problems with animated gifs.
