I'm pretty sure Dingle's responsible for the programming.
And you can always use the Image bin. That's what I do when I want to upload a GIF

Hmm...PHP isn't linked against any of the gif libraries, although it should really be relying on GD to handle that stuff. I guess I could try linking it to an external version of GD with gif support to see if that fixes the problem.

Or not. Further reading suggests that php 4.3.9+ supports gifs(both read and write) through the native GD library, and symmetry is running 4.4.0. So it's dingles fault.

Wow, people are actually looking into my complaint.
I feel so empowered.
Like at the DMV.
P.S. Some kid with autism who has been helping out at my office gave me a bottle of Hennessy for Christmas. And he's Jewish. Sweet.

It's something that's come up before I'm not doing anything important at the moment, so I looked into it. Don't expect a repeat anytime soon however as I've discovered some lint in my belly button that needs to be picked.

Avatars are fine as-is. The GIF thing is a bug, not a complaint.

I count anything we defeated in the war of 1812 as English soil.

If you click on the "images" button up there somewhere you can upload a gif, the rest you'll have to sort out for yourselves.
