If you especially dislike the avatar you were given, uploading a new avatar (or reuploading your current one) will give you a random new one. If anyone has any ideas for more "fool" avatars to add, post them here and I might add them later today.

The avatar feature will work properly after April 1.

Awesome to hear! Any restrictions or limits to avatars?

hey, can you add my avatar just a one day. i really want

Nope. Even if you were a Full Member you wouldn't be able to have that avatar currently. Read the rest of the thread or chonicsky's post above.

I don't mind gif avatars personally but maybe an option to disable animated ones could be added for those that do.

Oh yes please, pretty please, if our admin overlords ever allow animated GIFs for avatars, then consider the disable option as well. It's not that I dislike animated GIFs per se, but I've never liked animated graphics mixed into textual content as it's a distraction to my eyes indeed.

Can we have animated gifs?

No.

Is it possible to have animated gifs in the new forum? They tend to be more interesting than regular images and I've seen them on some forums.
Anyhow great work. I remember people complaining over the course of time, though it was not a issue for me since I already had one.

I'm sure they will be possible but doubt they will be allowed. I think they were banned on this forum previously because they were becoming too flashy and distracting. I don't mind gif avatars personally but maybe an option to disable animated ones could be added for those that do.

The images actually uploaded, but the others didn't really see it, we actually see the images from https://bitcointalk.org/useravatars/fool_x.jpg (replace x with number)

Why?? Angry

Are you sure ? I have seen that your avatar is different than the actual (in this discussion):

It seems he changed his avatar repeatedly,

Mine is working, don't know what the others see..
Anyway, thanks Theymos!

Newbie please Wink

Doubt it'll happen. Too easy for newbs to abuse it by impersonating others. Besides, I think it's a nice additional perk to receive once you hit a Full Member status which doesn't take that long to achieve.

I do not abuse, because I want to hope this happens for Newbies [only me] I will pay it, if you want Cry

I want to use this photo Embarrassed

You'll be able to on the 7th of July (assuming they don't get disabled after April Fool's).

Thank you theymos, I just choosen my favorite avatar.

Haha. This one along with the real one in your profile made me double lol.

Quote from: matt4054 on April 01, 2015, 12:45:57 AM

The question is now what will happen once the April fools is over, will we get back to the previous situation or are the real, new avatars going to show up?

We can only wait and find out but I can't see why not. It would be cruel not to let us have them Grin

I would think this might have an effect on the price when reselling accounts. Accounts with avatars won't fetch as much. Probably a good thing. I'm not sure I'm too keen on the idea of account reselling

I think you'll be wrong. Assuming avatars stay it will just make Full Members and above more valuable if anything.

Did you mean accounts without avatars?

No. He is saying that the premium for having an avatar is going to go away.
