try this
1. resize them to anything 175 by 175 or below, click the resize button.
2. try to wait till its done before you browse away. It was happening to me, I would make it and click back on wow, and the animation would freeze up.

Truly agree with Tzarina, how do you do it?

Let me just see if I get this right. I click 'Animated Gif' and then resize it (I wait til it's done before I open another window), but when I open the file, it's still frozen :/ There is a brief moment while it's resizing that the picture freezes and then goes back to moving, could that be it?

I'm so silly, when I uploaded the "frozen" picture to a forum it became unfrozen again ^^. Must be my picture program then

So, I think i've saved an animation now, how do i upload it? Should i upload to photobucket or something?

Tzarina · August 13, 2008, 06:07 AM

If you're gonna use it on a forum you can upload it directly from your computer, otherwise I usually use Imageshack. Could be different with .gif pictures though.

If im gonna upload it here? How do i do? I cant find anywhere to put them in the post (although I have never claimed to be very good at searching

)

Thx for the help guys

Maybe that is a good thing... Nah!

I saw a link of their website that was pretty interesting to something called WoW PaperIdol. It generates customized sigs and avatars using the Armory that show your specific gear. It is supposed to update automatically and they either have, or will have, options to customize the look of the charecter to match yours.

The big downside is that they are having some ongoing issues with the US Armory but I thought some of our European members might enjoy it.

Info is here:

Of course, they don't move like Twista's so they're not nearly as cool.

I use flickr, but anyone of the above sites should work. I mainly use the wow model viewer for my movie intros along with fraps.
