Moving avatars

I find so many funny avatars that have motion in them, how can I use them as my avatar? Everytime I try and save one or use one, it just stays still.

Are you talking about Phlabibit's? His is good, and he changes his often and they are always good. Plus he appears to be a Red Sox fan, which obviously means he is intelligent.

A lot of people's move. Impatient's in the second post is another one i have found also, but I can't save it and have it move like that.

Mine doesnt move - you must mean someone else.

I would also like to know exactly how to do it though. Does it require a certain application that not everyone may have? Not everyone at RHP are software experts.

Animated avatars must be exactly 50x50.

If they are not, they are froze on the first (or last?) frame.
