gif issues

I have tried everything from useing diffrent browsers to downloading flash and updating graphic card drivers

I can't see any GIFs from Postimage. Try another host maybe?

Thanks for the PM... BH has yet to get out all the kinks and bugs in the PM system, he is working on getting the delete message to work. I just checked and you GIF doesn't seem to be displaying best check the two threads regarding GIF's one created by myself and one by Ripley Clone 8, If you still cannot get it to display I suggest asking Ripley Clone 8 for his guidance, what with the GIF thing being his gig and all. Hope that helps.

YER me to, i cant see mine or yours Ripley 8 Said try refreshing the page or use firefox although no luck yet

snorkelbottom could you post the link to your sugestions please ps can you see mine?

mmmmmmm yeah i was using chrome but i switched to firefox ripleyclone assured me he could see it but i guess its not the case.

no huckerlover yours is blank to but i can see most but yours is not the only one i cant see

Postimage is not allowing direct linking. Try a different host.

Yes he said he could see mine to

ok i will try something else

let us know how you get on

Try this, right click your icon whether you can see it or if its blank and click "view image" Then when your image pops up right click the image itself and click on the "Copy Image Location" Then go to your profile, edit profile and place that link into your image bar, then update your profile.

hurrah it worked ripley well done mate problem solved

very nice it is to lol

ALSO BugHunter will be uploading the newer GIFS i made to the Prometheus-Movie.com server. So you should be able to see them tonight. Reason why I don't use Photobucket for GIF often is because usually GIFS are larger than regular still photos and they are compiled of hundreds of frames rather than 1 still frame. When I upload them to Photobucket they are shrunk to fit the size limit of Photobucket's which is around 3 MB. Additionally the 200 x 160 GIF images I process for the members here are then shrunken down to 40 x 20 nearly microscopic size. Postimage.org is the only site as of right now that will allow GIF images like mine to stay in contact without the issue of shrinkage. There are a lot of kinks still being worked out. GIF images are new to A LOT of people and most image hosting websites won't let you upload images that are higher than 2 MB and most of the time they won't even let you upload animated GIFS. I can see EVERYONE'S GIF image. It might be Postimage.org's problem or it easily could be a issue on the members side. Either way bare with us as some of these problems are going to take sometime to work out. I suggest you keep trying different troubleshooting techniques to help solve the problem. I told BugHunter about the Postimage.org forum app he can download for Prometheus-Movie.com which would enable its server to be connected with this one and allow all members to upload images through the Postimage.org server to this one. That might solve all these problems. BugHunter is pretty busy right now but he will get back to me soon. Hope some of this information helped, Ripley Clone 8

still cant see yours hukerlover try ripleyclones suggestion

click on the empty space where your gif should be and select view image in the drop down box... you should then see it appear in a new tab.... then right click and copy url of image and post it into your profile picture url box and viola should be ok.

Sorry to burst peoples bubbles but the only GIF's I'm seeing in this thread are mine and RC8's

@alteredstate. I can't see your GIF image buddy. Don't copy the URL of the image when it pops up. You have to right click the image itself and then click Copy image location and then put it into your image bar.

ohhhhhh well im seeing mine now cant see huckerlovers but everyones else is here

@alteredstate alteredstate try that for me man. I would appreciate a lot thanks!! Don't copy the URL of the image when it pops up. You have to right click the image itself and then click Copy image location and then put it into your image bar. That way EVERYONE can see your image.

@ Hukerlover - LOL man you've pasted the link into your status - select and copy (Ctrl + C) the address RC8 sent you. - open a new tab in your browser and paste (Ctrl + V) into the address bar - when the page loads up, right click the GIF and select "Copy Image URL" - go to your profile, make sure the URL field is empty and paste (Ctrl + V) [b]IMPORTANT[/b] - Make sure there are no spaces Voila, that should work.

YAY! Now its working for you alteredstate!!

I'm not seeing Alteredstates GIF on my screen RC8 PS - I'm using google chrome, not that it should matter

am i on or not guys lol

Alteredstate did you change something buddy? I just saw your GIF like 5 minutes ago?

ARHHHHHHHHHH chaps I cant see the image on the browser and when i right click the pic and show picture nothing happens i still cant see any bodys giffs other than RC8 and Snorkelbottoms

LMAO I'm dieing

Okay follow me to the letter... - Right click you image in this thread (big white square with a small broken image icon in the middle) - Select open image in a new tab - Go to that tab and you should see you GIF displaying, right click on the GIF and select copy image url - Come back here and go to your profile by clicking on your name - Select all the text in the box for your profile pic and hold backspace for 2 secs - Hold CTRL and press V - Click on the password field and type in your password - Click the Apply Changes button I apologise for it being an anal guide but, it should ensure success (fingers crossed)

The site RC8 currently uses redirects your URL on their server side, so Prometheus-Movie.com is not getting the correct image url, thus not displaying. Read [url=http://www.prometheus-movie.com/community/forums/topic/1276]this thread[/url] for a possible solution, otherwise try signing up on a free image host provider which offers embedding options for media and simply use the direct URL provided by them. I'm debating on the idea of having GIFs being limited to members who have a post count over 100 or so. As I could then upload them to our server for faster viewing. If every member on here uses a GIF, it will slow the site down, regardless of how lightweight our platform is. So maybe limiting custom avatars is a good way to promote more active members and save on memory for the site. I'm locking this thread now as there are already about 3 separate threads on this issue. PM me or RC8 for further assistance on profile help. Thanks everyone, TBA on my final decision regarding "earning" a GIF via posts.

ive tried everything guys lol meticulously im a failure im of for a hot bath and razorblades at the ready lol
