  2. Our gif only content threads have a rule where all thumbs must be posted as a static thumbnail that does not play. Currently imagebam made a change where they no longer produce static thumbs. Therefore, please do not use imagebam, or any host, that provides live playing gifs in those specific threads. If you see your gif playing once you post, try to use a smaller thumbnail and if that does not work use a different approved host.

    when it gives you that message, click "more information" then it will tell you which codec you need. Then just google it and download it and you're set. But Tommy is right, you probably just need the Divx codec.

    I didn't even know we had a news section, but I have never looked for that so I dunno.

    Anywho, them codecs they was tellin you will usually work, assuming of course that you have the latest update of Win media player also. If you aren't sure just start, all programs, windows updates, choose custom, let it scan, and then look at optional updates.

    If you have that and get them codecs and it still don't work post here again and I can tell you more codecs and/or players.
     
  6. Actually I have winampfull, bsplayer, wmp9, and media player classic but if you want a simple player that is good stick with media player classic.
