How do I put an animated gif in my sig?

[Cerek the Barbaric]

After downloading the Google Toolbar yesterday, I was using it to browse for different pics and gifs and decided to look for some animated gifs. I found one I really like and want to put it in my sig, but I've never dealt with an animated gif before.

How do I host it and then link it to my Profile? Can Ranchoweb handle an animated gif, or do they only host jpegs? Once the gif is hosted, do I just follow the same process as normal to put it in my sig?

I appreaciate your time and effort on this. I did a Search and found a few topics that mentioned the animated gifs, but couldn't find any detailed instructions on how to actually insert them in my sig.

Thanks again for all your help.

Once it is hosted, it should be just like a regular picture. Just do it like you normaly would. [img]smile.gif[/img]

You can use ranchoweb to host it; at least, when I used to have a ranchoweb account my pig still flapped while hosted there . Just upload it like any other image. Then as Pritcke said, putting it in your sig is no different to a non-animated gif [img]smile.gif[/img]

Thank you for the help. Here is the new sig. It is a bit too large to begin with (200 x 200), but our own Lady Zekke was kind enough to re-size it to the proper dimensions for me.

Thank you, Wendy. That was a sweet gesture and I sincerely appreciate it. [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]
