Would be neat yeah...
But it would cause more lag to game so i'm against it.

This would only increase the lag.

Most .gif are so very low quality especially if they get compressed. So you would be getting horrible avatars unless they were sprites, hand drawn or very simple animations.

Sorry but no.




Plus Oko would be super rich. :lol:

Here one legitimate reason to vote no on any change: "The code is buggy enough as it is."
A second would be "I'd rather have new well-tested content."

Do people object to the animations on gear?


Yes... dear god YES! I used to have an account on bebo (facebook's younger "special" brother) and the animated avi's drove me spare! too much sparkly glittery stuff.
Avi's are fine, leave them, work on other important stuff.

The last time this suggestion popped up, I think that's where the "inside joke" of my neon pink sparkly knife came from. :lol:


And then it actually got made into a real FS weapon.


But yeah, NO on the animated avatars.
