Thanks moses, I've also made a new avatar gif but it only shows as a still until you open up my profile. Is there anyway to bring back the gif

One of the reasons XenForo is so fast is it keeps big ticket items off the main page loads.
This page is 240kb in total (though most of this is cached so I download 26kb when refreshing it. By contrast, your animated gif is 760kb!

Since 95% of our traffic comes from guests who don't have anything cached, I reckon animated gifs showing would triple the average page size, and in turn triple the server load and cut load times in 3!

I don't know that was years ago! You're memory dims with age. Well at least mine does.

In the worlds before Monkey, primal chaos reigned. Heavens sought order. But the phoenix can fly only when its feathers are grown. The four worlds formed again and yet again, as endless aeons wheeled and passed. Time and the pure essence of Heaven, the moisture of the Earth, the powers of the Sun and the Moon all worked upon a certain rock, old as creation. And it became magically fertile. That first egg was named "Thought". Tathagata Buddha, the Father Buddha, said, "With our thoughts, we make the World". Elemental forces caused the egg to hatch. From it came a stone monkey. The nature of Monkey was irrepressible!

In the worlds before Chariots, primal chaos (AKA Phil Waugh) reigned. Hickey sought order. But the Dunning can dropkick only when it is not enough. The Waugh worlds (AKA rucks) formed again and yet again, as fendless Kurkley Bealed and cut-out passed. Time and the pure essence of the game they play in Heaven, the moisture on the Turf, the powers of the Mumm and the Cannon all worked upon a certain Rock, with hamstrings old as creation. And it became magically futile. That first egg was named "Nort(on-knight)". Timanitworats Buddha, the Older Brother Buddha, said, "With our improved handling, we make the World Cup Training Squad". Mental forces and Higginbotham caused the Rock to crack. From it came a stone cold mother fucker. Chariots. The nature of his crash ball was irrepressible!"​

Moses you used to be able to click on a quoted post and it would hyperlink back to the original. Is this possible with Xenforo?

It does do it, it's just not as obvious as I'll change it to...
Hover your mouse just to the right of the quoted name in the dark green quote header..
