I don't understand why you don't like them. They don't take extra space or bandwidth because you can set the limits in vb options so what is the problem, with them? Also by clicking the 'stop' button when a page is loaded animated gifs stop animating.

NB: use the search :ermm:

Well, just because you like them doesn't mean everyone does.

they're very anoying, especially the flashing, fast moving ones.

ps: I always use the search, but this time search results didn't show that hack for me.

However, if the thread makers had searched the forum maybe you wouldn't have spent the time making a png/jpg only avatar hack.

JPG is better for pictures anyway

gif is more like for buttons, logos etc
And I have search the forum first, but didn't find the right hack, this ones serves me well.

But some people on my board complain that animated avatars and images in signature get on their nerves. So why not make it nicer for them?

Besides, my hack is muuuuuuuuuch smaller (only 6 lines of code, unlike the one you gave link to), which makes it quicker.

yep your hack is just smaller and more usefull to me thanks again bro
