This is my new one:
As Dirt_owl I fully endorse this decision
Lmao
i refuse to actually look at anyone’s pfp, and most of you are dirt owl anyway
We did this on Dirt_Owl Day and it was brilliant
you are violencing me i can’t read or choose new pfps
Smh smh, do GIFs not work as pfps? 😭
Yes they do, just don’t ask how long it took
I uploaded the gif and it showed it animating in the little pfp but then after pressing save and exiting options it just shows the first frame now
It’s 100% a black art. You need to upload as
webp
instead ofgif
, a square, dimensions a power of 2, Venus rising, milk and cookies (because all this work is tiring), and exported with the proper rites according to the Adeptus Mechanicus codex #118.EDIT: I’m not even sure power of 2 is necessary lol. Mine isn’t!
Ok I got it working but it’s kind of fucked up now and has weird grey squares in it
Edit: just to test I’ll see if it acts the same way here:
Yeah…
It took a few different tries at resizing and exporting to get it sort-of ok.
have you tried using ezgif?
https://ezgif.com/webp-maker
there are repair tools for gifs, converts to webp, also optimisations to reduce file sizeI tried it and somehow it got worse
Making it smaller by changing the file dimensions seems to make it render correctly.

How though?
They do. One comrade over on Hexbear has a rotating hammer and sickle.
Also, I really like the edited Richard Stallman onto Bateman lmao
Ok I’ll try adding it again, maybe I did it wrong
You could try asking @SexUnderSocialism@hexbear.net how she did it.
I’m guessing it has to be very small in size and formatted in a specific way for it to actually play. There might be some fiddly sub-settings of exporting .gifs involved that I barely know exist.
I think maybe hexbear might just not be allowing gif uploads to pfps rn or something
I’m not sure
I have seen people with gif pfps before I think, so it is possible somehow.
alright, but just for today
Sorry mine is already iconic
Yeah same
One of us one of us
It’s a nice photograph of Christopher Lloyd.
It’s actually Steve Jobs at the moment when he found out he had cancer
jokes on you, i have that all disabled because it makes HexBear look like a MySpace page.
Profile pictures turned off gang represent. No liberal’s gonna ever put pictures into my brain without my express permission. The rest of you will be sorry when the CIA wises up to this place and uses a cognitohazardous image like the parrot in profile images to jack into your mind and turn you into brainwashed wraiths of the empire
uses a cognitohazardous image like the parrot
That’s ridiculous
They know their target, the cognitohazardous image they’ll generate will be based on the bunny cop
(neat sci fi short story for context on “the parrot”)
you can turn them off? hot diggity!
profile pictures are revisionist, no i will not elaborate.
Oh lol, I thought you meant like swap pfps with other people in the thread. I changed mine but I miss my forg
nothing can ever top deaugh fish for me
I will only switch pfps with @Alaskaball@hexbear.net
Ok, gonna go have an existential crisis rn, brb
