Avatar problem. Help needed.

[Qwerty]

I'm not sure if this is in the right Dept' apologies if it needs moving.
I'm having problems loading a new avatar. I've got as far as copying and pasting but when I try to submit changes it says invalid file or URL.
I don't think it's due to the size as I've tried several. On the edit avatar page it doesn't seem to accept whatever I try to submit
I'm using an iPad if that makes any difference

If you hadn't already guessed I'm not exactly a PC wizard.
Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Chris, my 5 year old son wants to know where your last animated avatars gone?
He used to copy it and do it to his 5 month old baby brother!

They must exceed the size limit.

how can you resize gifs but not lose the animation?

you can resize them pixel wise but not file size (I think) otherwise they just become a jpeg

The tinfoil hat wearing it geek Brendy will confirm this.
