Is there any way to preserve gif transparency?

<< If I try to upload a gif image for an avatar, it loses its transparency and gets stuck with a white background. Looks like it gets butchered server-side.

This seems to be the case for all animated avatars on NA. Is there any way to fix this, aside from making the background gray?

  • Your avatar is an animated gif now, and it looks fine. I dont see any white outlines. Maybe try another browser?
  • Really? I can see it in Firefox, Chrome, and Safari.

    EDIT: Weird. I download it and open it with an image editor, and it has its transparency back...
  • I'm using Chrome, and I see the white border.
  • I think it might have to do with the css styling used on the image. The background-color is set to white.

  • If the image was less than 120 pixels w/h, we don't touch the image server-side. I think it's your image that's not transparent.
