deleted01 Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Right thread for this? The avatar I have atm is a gif, but it's not moving. It works on other forums. Just wondering if there's anything I can do to fix this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 I'm having the strangest issue. I had some malware recently, so could be related, but I don't know for sure. I got rid of the malware and my security scanner says my computer is clean. But I can't post on the board (doing this from my phone). I can type in the space but nothing happens when I hit the post button. Interestingly, I can PM. Anyone have any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K.C. Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Dracarya, did you have to resize it to meet the upload requirements and lose the animation in the process? Small, simple animated GIFs should work, because Liar over in Forum Games just re-uploaded his old one and it's fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 I think something was up w/ my browser, and it seems to be fixed, so please disregard! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pebble thats Stubby Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Ah yes I did, but I also had to resize it for another forum and it's fine there. Hmm.Try uploading it to Gravatar and linking from there. I found animated Gifs work from their but not when uploaded dircetly to this board.

deleted01 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Nope no luck. Ah well. I still have Madden, can't really complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparks Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 When Invision processes the avatar to ensure it's of an appropriate size and all optimized, it does seem to remove the animation. A bit unfortunate. But yes, an external avatar (i.e., Gravatar) will work, but it might take the board's caches a bit to update and show the Gravatar instead of the uploaded-locally one.

Elder Sister Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 As of yesterday, I am having issues with seeing everything on my IPad. It's like there are ads or something causing strange squares everywhere.It works fine at other sites. It's just this one that's acting weird and it's only on my IPad. What should I do?

Florina Laufeyson Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Hi...Im getting this popup:http://i50.tinypic.com/3spk6.jpgWhat does that mean? I click reject but it keeps popping up here.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ran Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 That's a strange one. It'd be Facebook related. I don't have the issue, myself.I also don't have a problem with the site on the iPad. Were you using Tapatalk? I still need to update to the latest version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elder Sister Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Okay - I'm reporting back on my problem. It was Ipad related. I cleared my cookies and history in Safari and then powered off the Ipad and that fixed my problem.So sorry to trouble you guys - thanks! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparks Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 The weird squares thing is an issue I saw on my own iPad; an ad banner (FastClick, I think) wrote some weird mangled cookie and caused sites using that banner system to get all wonkynuts in terms of layout. Hence why clearing cookies would've fixed it for you.The static.ak.facebook.com thing is an issue with Facebook's content delivery network. Normally, requests to Facebook's image URL would be sent to the Akamai sites via http (not requiring a certificate). Earlier, however, for whatever reason, requests for a little 16x16 PNG of the Facebook logo were being redirected to https instead, and thus returned with Akamai's default certificate for the server. This, quite legitimately, would lead to a certificate error; some browsers don't care whether certificates match for images embedded on a non-secured page, but others -- Safari, notably -- will throw a giant 'whoa wait what' dialog up.That said, chatter around the net is that Akamai's fixed the certificate problem as of about 40 minutes ago, so it should be gone now.

Florina Laufeyson Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 I use Opera so yeah. Anyway, thanks a ton Sparks! I figured it was some sort of facebook related thing but i never saw that prompt before and i was all "da fuck..." :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samih Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 I started a new topic last week but it wasn't posted. It said that it will need approval from a moderator before it is shown, but I don't see why a moderator would disapprove of it? There was nothing inappropriate in the post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
( Bloodraven ) Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Hi, did the forum change the way it looks recently? Because all of a sudden the site looks like this to me: fonts are larger, the spacing is wider, the links are blue and there's that weird grey border around the board....It wasn't like this last night. I tried on both Firefox and Opera browsers.Or is it just me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
