stunned smilies

Faceman · 08-13-2003, 07:44 PM

I've had that problem for quite some time and it always bothered me but I was too lazy to look into it.

The animated smilies like [img]graemlins/thewave.gif[/img] for example do not move on my PC.
Normal GIFs (be it locally stored or on webpages) work. But at IWF I only get to see the first frame of the animation.

questions:
Why?
How do I fix it?

What browser are you using? If IE, I believe it should work if you go into:

Tools => Internet Options => Advanced then go down to Multimedia, and check the box marked "Show Animations in Web Pages." [img]smile.gif[/img]

Are you using ZoneAlarm Pro? Whenever I enable ad-blocking with ZAP this happens, so I turn it off when I visit Ironworks.

just disabled the "animation" box in the ZApro adblocking options and Wohoo!
