I see so many profiles with funky GIF animations as pictures, I just want to ask - where'd you guys get them from? I tried searching the internets, but it wasn't of much use:( Also, most are too big - over 100kb.
Help? I want my profile to look cool too:D
thanks

I'm pretty sure most .gifs are found on tumblr. But I can't say for sure.

Also, the size limit doesn't matter! If you just use the [img] tags, then you can upload a pic of any size. I'll just use an image taken from Google as an example...

Code
[img]http://www.animalwallpapers.in/images/wallpapers/baby_tigers-965390.jpeg[/img]


Becomes:

Image

The principle is: put the url of the image you want to use (you can isolate it by right-clicking and selecting "open image in new tab") between the [img] tags.

Hope that helps. :)

The day, which was one of the first of spring, cheered even me by the loveliness of its sunshine and the balminess of the air. I felt emotions of gentleness and pleasure, that had long appeared dead, revive within me. Half surprised by the novelty of these sensations, I allowed myself to be borne away by them, and forgetting my solitude and deformity, dared to be happy.
