How do I upload images and videos to the forum?

You’re going to need to resize it through some kind of online tool—there are plenty of sites out there that handle that. Honestly, you'll have a much easier time just doing this kind of thing on a computer rather than messing around on a phone.

That’s exactly what I was thinking... thanks.

How do I set an Animated GIF as my avatar? Thanks

It’s pretty much the same deal as any other avatar you’d upload—just make sure you double-check the pixel dimensions and the file size in KB so it doesn't glitch out.

Doesn't matter 😕 I already shrunk the image and everything, but it still won't work.

Did you get it small enough? It's sitting at 75x75 px and about 29.3 kB now.

How do I actually set an Animated GIF as my avatar? Every time I download one and try to resize it, the damn thing just turns into a static image like nothing happened 🤷

You can't just shrink an Animated GIF as easily as you would a standard image—it’s a headache. Honestly, your best bet is just to hunt for a GIF that’s already within the size limits.

The real issue here? There just aren't enough tiny GIFs out there! 🙄

Well, there’s this really handy little program—it's completely portable, too,
meaning you don't even have to go through the whole installation process; you just run it,
it’s called Animated GIF producer, so just give that a search online.

Can anyone give me a hand here? I’m trying to get into my computer to grab some photos so I can upload them to Facebook—otherwise, this damn thing is just gonna keep acting up. It's kind of urgent—can someone please walk me through this!!!

Every time I try to upload an image via Reddit, it comes out absolutely massive—honestly, looking more like one of those giant posts from cosmicseal98—when all I really want is something more reasonable, maybe like the size of Peter King4's images in the earlier posts. I’ve been digging through the Reddit settings trying to find a way to scale them down, but I haven't had any luck. Does anyone know a workaround for resizing things easily on my phone, or a simple way to just get a properly sized image onto the forum using the app? 🙂
