Could be a lot of things.

First, why the double post?
Seems to be happening to many people here.
I got an error page a couple of times that made me think my thread wasn't posted. But it actually was.


Back to the gif.
Can you post the original image you wanted for your avatar to this thread?

It might help to know what you are using to make your gif's too.

If you see dancing waters, it's not your browser.

Could be the file is too big.

I would have thought you would have gotten an error message for using a 35kB gif as an avatar.
Maybe it just compressed the image on it's own. It looked kind of bad. If it just took the first frame it would have looked better.

Try an animated gif under 15kB. It should work.

That pony gif? Way too big, so here's my guess. Your Gumball av was also too big in either pixels or size, and when the forum software auto-resized it (it sometimes does that) it turned it into a static gif.
