I just uploaded an animated gif file for my avatar, then copied and pasted the url in My Home just like I'm supposed to, but now I have no avatar. What gives?

I fixed it for you, I'm not sure why it didn't work when you tried.
Let me know if you need anything else.

I just got the same problem, and I think Redstorm is having this problem as well. I tried to change the image to my avatar in the MyPics section and it worked, but it is not animated because I am unable to remove "thumb_" from the url.

How did you specify the avatar: from the gallery or did you manually enter the url, and when you submitted it, was there are message from the script?

I entered in the URL manually 
and there were no messages - it just went back to 'My Home' like it normally does...only there was no pic where my avatar should've been

I just tried setting it from the gallery and that seemed to work 
I don't think animated gifs can be done like that though

something else that I've noticed is that transparent gifs (i.e. pics that have 'empty' areas where the background is supposed to show through) show up with a white background...which pretty much defeats the purpose of using a gif like that
I'm not sure if that can be fixed or not - but I thought I'd bring it to your guys' attention anyways (just in case)

You can always change the avatar url manually, you are not limited to using the gallery avatar function.

that doesn't seem to be working right now though
everytime I try to set it manually - it just gets rid of my avatar all together
