The one you are attempting to load is far too large.

Either use one of the internet animated gif resizing apps to resize the gif or seek and use one that falls within the maximum size parameters for use in the forums.

My one is 96x72 pixels and 31kbytes.

It's looking good, Lee and just 2k in size!

The software does seem to be a bit picky over the AGifs. I had a couple rejected. both well within size limits yet another member has a 49k gif running perfectly.

This site works quite well, Robert.

You can crop, resize and drop frames from the image.
