Im trying to set my profile pic to a .gif, and the avatar changer is advising it needs to be under 585kb, but the image I am using is around 400, and it is 222x231, am I doing something wrong?

Has something to do with how many frames it has

Anyone know the exact limit, I've got 63 on it apparently

I figured it our a while ago.
You should be around 285 to 290 iirc.
Frames also effect it but I keep it to 6.
I was able to get my owb avatar to work after messing with the gif for hours lol.
I'll upload an example in a bit if needed.
