Hi Mate,

Most are moving gifs. Don't know about other people but I just pick mine up when searching the web.

Just do a google search on 'free avatars' or such like, which should throw up a few sites.

Cheers...

You may need to resize your images to fit the constraints of the site,the maximum size of your custom image is 150 by 100 pixels or 97.7 KB (whichever is smaller).
This site will resize for free http://www.gifworks.com/cgi-bin/gifw...=transfer_open

Or if the size is ok,it could be your internet security/firewall settings thats stopping it from moving.

And when you save it to your pc, you need to keep it as a gif, not a jpeg.

I've noticed when resizing, that your image should be 80x80, and then the avatar will work fine without turning off firewalls.
