# Animated Profile

### 🏆 Moving Characters – Gold Exclusive

Gold members can make their Characters truly stand out with motion and style.

***

#### 🎥 Animated Profile & Background

* Upload GIF files as your Character’s main profile image or background image.
* Your Character will catch attention instantly—whether in Explore or inside the chatroom.
* Perfect for creating eye-catching moments that static images can’t match.

***

#### 💎 Gold Badge Visibility

Gold Characters proudly display the Gold Plan badge in:

* Explore Page
* Character Profile

This badge signals premium quality and boosts visibility compared to other Characters.

#### 🚀 Why It Stands Out

Combine:

* A moving profile image
* A dynamic background
* A Gold badge in all public listings

<br>

…and you get a Character that turns heads, sparks curiosity, and earns admiration from other users.
