How do you use a GIF Avatar on here?

[The X Files Manson Silent Hill]

I see a few other people that have one. An avatar that has movement in it.

I think someone said they do it by using on on twitter and then linking the account to yahoo pulse and using the same avatar.

It's done by connecting your Answers account with a Twitter account.......... however apparently Twitter have stopped supporting this any longer.

As a result old accounts with it can retain their animated avatar but if you change it for a new one (or try with a new account) then it won't work

(This is all according to several regulars on the Answers Suggestion Board who have a lot more experience with animated avatars than what I have)

You Cant Do that Anymore The People that Still Have it Did it Before Yahoo Found Out the Trick The Trick that they Used Was They connected there Facebook and Twitter accounts To Yahoo Answers Which Allowed Pictures to Be Updated on Both Networks So When They Changed there Display Picture on Facebook or Twitter that was a GIF it would Apply on here Yahoo Answers Has Found The Trick of that and Has Put a Stop to it
