Animate your profile picture (works on profiles, blogs, and bulletins!)

Tags: animated, profile, picture, avatar, profile picture, blogs, bulletins, twilight

Description:

Tired of having lame, motionless avatars? Wish you could animate your avatar? Well, I have most of a solution for you! This only works on places you can put CSS in, so your posts and profiles only, basically.
Note that your profile picture should be square and 160x160 or greater.
It is possible to edit the CSS to not have this requirement, though! Thanks to Bela for pointing out how to make it easier with the background-size – just change it however you'd like, now. If you want my recommendation for how to ensure it stays properly fitted (do this twice, once for blogs & bulletins, once for profiles):
  1. Upload your gif to https://ezgif.com/resize
  2. Look at the width/height under the image. Whichever one has the bigger number, go down to the input fields and only fill that one in — the first time, you fill it in with 110, the second, fill it in with 160. (This only applies for the default layout, your layout may make the profile image bigger! Consult your local layout wizard for more info.)
  3. You don't have to use the actual gif that gets outputted, just note down what it says the width and height are.
  4. Change the numbers for whichever section you're on to match the numbers ezgif outputs.
  5. With that, it should be perfectly fitted to your gif, and fitted to the default sizes!
