I bet it was Zooom, he still holds a grudge against Austrians because of the Polish partition of 1772. BTW: Minimum post length seems a little long, its like 10 lines or so?
When I go to upload my avatar it already showed and animated avatar but, on the forums its not animated... however changing the avatar worked.
I think the forum is doing auto scaling... im fairly sure the avatar I chose is larger then what is shown.
Yes, the forum autoscales your avatar, this shouldn't affect the overall quality of the image though.
Ah yes, when I did the transfer, to stop lagging issues I disabled auto processing, I re-enabled it after the transfer was complete, however for those who had GIFs, you'll have to re-upload the image.
