Hi,
This is a question for Kyobanim, or somebody with forum admin expertise. I am setting up a forum (with phpBB cuz its open source). Is it hard to use animated smilies? I have figured out how to put gif smilies up, but if I try to download an animated gif it only gives me one frame of it. Whats your secret?

Thanks!!

Have you tried uploading the animated gif to your BB and posting it in a test post?

Right click on it and choose save as. You can do it from the one I posted. After you save it to your PC, upload it to your board.
