My new avatar gif not giffing

[Nate]

What did I do wrong? I verified on my laptop that it was animated. Tried to upload it, and got a size error. So, I resized it, (but did not verify the animation), and uploaded it. Not animated now.

Went back to the file on my laptop, and sure as shootin', it's not animated.

Somehow, in the resizing, I lost the animation feature.

Any suggestions on how to resize and maintain the animation feature?

You can't resize an animated .gif using a regular photo editing program; you'll lose the animation.

Search for a website that will resize animated gifs; I found one a while back when I had an animated avatar.

Thank you sir, that was the trick!
