customprofilepic converts jpg's to gif's on upload?

[Steve123]

Hi there, I notice when you upload/update a jpg file in Edit Profile Picture it converts this to a gif.

Example. I uploaded hello.jpg and it stored as profilepic1_6.gif.

Why is this?

also when i look in the mysql table " customprofilepic " I get the filename as hello.jpg, im confused shouldnt it be profilepic1_6.gif?

mysql table:

userid | filedata | dateline | filename | visible | filesize | width | height
1 | [BLOB - NULL] | 1137977541 | hello.jpg | 1 | 31912 | 600 | 400
