Hiya Dude-sweet

You may want to check out this thread HERE as to why we're trying to keep the image sizes in check here

I don't really have an answer for your avi conversion question, but I'm sure someone here knows a thing or two about it

Nice av btw

I think the max size for an avatar is like 28kb or so. (sorry if I shoulda used Kb, I can never keep that stuff straight)

I'm pretty sure you can convert a video to animated gif using Ulead's GIF Animator. It's a sweet program. But you will still need to keep it under the max allowable size which might be difficult.
