I figured out a cool trick to make your guild picture animated. To do this, you need an animated GIF. I choose one of a water balloon hitting a man's face. Next, download it to your computer. Resize the image so it work with the gang pic, and then save it. Now, you remove the extension .gif from it and make the .gif extension .jpeg. You're done! Upload the file via facebook graal era to your gang and wait. If it says the file type doesn't work, please make sure the file is .jpeg. If it says the file is too big, then make it smaller. To put your gang picture in your status, write this into your status:
PHP Code:

I had the chicken dudes status,now its the water balloon one..So funny.
|
Yea... I keep changing it. What's your name in game?
|
it didnt work :p
|
Sometimes you have to log out of your facebook account and log into your iPod account to make it work.
So, browse to the photo, wait 20 seconds, log out of facebook, log into your iPod, and look at your gang pic. |
where can I change the extension? I just did save as and picked jpeg on paint but I doubt that worked.
|
You have to save the image as an animated .gif and rename the extension to .jpeg on your deskop. You can do this on Windows by right clicking a file, pressing rename, and make the extension .jpeg
|
That just lets me rename the picture not the extension :s
|
Sorry, you need to enable something in windows. It's easy.

Hey why you close the Baseman server shawn? (Off topic)
|
Uh Shawn, it still doesn't work.
|
OK well I renamed the extension and everything but its still not showing up animated, its just a still image like it would be with a jpeg :p

That's what I did to make it work.
|
You sure there's nothing you missed? Where did you get the gif?
|
Uploading it as a .gif should work fine.
|
@NCJohn Google images
@Talon nope |
It does in Classic FB, and has the same delay time like if you posted it as .jpeg, and have to look on your iDevice to verify it updated. Maybe there's just something wrong with your file/file size?

Worked like a charm <3 everyone loves a dancing banana right? (except banana haters)
|
Nevermind got it to work, just had to download a smaller gif. Would rep you but I need to spread it around :s. Also thanks john for the help too :D
|
Help me get it NCJ
|
I still can't get it to work... hmmm
|
Oh.

Also, try to resize it in GIMP (because paint.net doesn't work and GIMP works well with editing photos). To do this, go to the image menu, press scale, and make it smaller to fit. Then, export the image in file>export and press save. On the next screen, make sure you have save as animation to make it work. Then, rename the extension and stuff.
|
Can you tell us the dimensions of the gang pic? :D
|
For me when I upload it as my gang pic it keeps showing it as a still image.
|
Do you have animations off in the settings?
|
It works just fine, upload a smaller gif or test it with a dancing banana (PS: on the Facebook version of Era, you cannot see it directly, open your iOS device to view it or refresh the page)
|
Yea. Facebook shows the dancing KFC guy still but it's on the water balloon to the face animation.
|
It works for me when I open up the GIF in google chrome but it doesn't work when I upload it to Facebook Era
|
Upload a different pic with less frames.
|
what's the gang pic size?

Use any size, it will resize automoticwlly, just use something small, not bigger than 1-3mb
|
I prefer to use something around 125x125 but I think john's right.
