Make it easier to upload .GIFS
This site "claims" that you can upload a .gif as it is. But actually you have to save it as a .jpg and then upload it. However when I try to do it, it never works. I've sent many tech support requests, (which they've never followed up on) and really it shouldn't be this hard to upload .gifs. If the site has it that you can upload .gifs without altering it, then let the users upload that way. Or just take it off and stop fooling users. It's like an ad that tells you Buy 1 Get 1 free but in reality you have to do certain things and really there's a catch. Fix it 7 Cups. Fix it.
One guy helped me, so I'll help you in four simple steps. 
To set 'profile image' to be animated you have to:
1. Download or make a forever animated gif, which ends with '.gif' extension;
2. Search how to show file extensions on your system (https://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/show-hide-file-name-extensions#show-hide-file-name-extensions=windows-7 - This is for Windows 7, but should apply to all Windows versions)
3. You now see your image as "name.gif", rename it to "name.jpg", you will see exclamation dialog where you will click yes.
4. Go to 7 cups and select "name.jpg" as your 'profile image'
That would be it, it worked for me and I hope I helped

@someguyfromhell
Thank you so much! You totally saved me XD <3
Excellent! My gif image works again, thank you! 
I've had a similar problem where it only works if I am changing it from a .jpg to an altered .gif (saved as .jgp). If I try to change it from a .gif to an altered .gif, it gives me an invalid file type error. So before you go to change it to an altered .gif, make sure it's a .jpg you're changing it from.
omg someone please help me. i have saved my gif as a .jpeg .jpg .mng everything nothing works its always still when i upload it. I use a mac so i convert it by goin to export as and changin the format and help appreciated.
