Why arent GIFs supported as profile pictures?

GIFs are supported as headers and user backgrounds here, why arent they supported as profile pictures?

I think they did on the old forums, I dunno why they didn’t allow it, maybe they masked their unwillingness to do it with the excuse of “People could make inappropriate gifs”
similarly to how we can’t have signatures here but could on the old forums

It apparently isn’t the file format, i checked and APNG,WebP,MNG,FLIF, nor AVIF works, so you must be right.

Yet Jake just went and copied the rules from the old forums, even including the part about signatures.

As far as not having signatures goes I’m actually kind of glad that we don’t have them here. They mainly just took up tons of space while trying to browse threads.

“do you want to buy pixel worlds nitro for only 69$ !!!1!!1!1 deal of the year!”

no idea tho

Pixel Worlds SuperVIP - only available as an annual subscription, with no way to purchase monthly, for $200/yr.

how bout “click to show full signature”

whole it’s only like 2 lines long default

That wouldn’t be too intrusive but it would most likely get ignored after someone had seen your signature for the first time.
