Character Sheet reset

I like using gifs, so I have added gifs to all my ability checks and saving throws.  I do so by editing the Attributes.  However, sometimes when my session starts, the attributes are back to normal.  Sometimes the reset happens in the middle of the game.  Is there a way to keep the gifs in the attribute code?

Hi Guy L.,  Which character sheet are you using?  It sounds like you are using Attributes that are already part of the Character. Ie: defined by the character sheet. That is why they are getting re-written.  The sheet periodically rewrites those attributes.  Instead, you need to make macros that you use instead of buttons on the sheet. Those macros can incorporate the gifs in the appropriate places. 
Ewww, it periodically rewrites them, huh.  Can't I make a "save point" for it to rewrite the sheet to that point? As for macros, I do have a macro that uses those attributes but in order to get the gif to appear I need to change the code on the Attribute side and not the Macro side.  Unless you know a better way.

No, there is no way to make a "save point". The character sheet structure uses the Attributes to hold things. It would be asking the sheet to no longer have memory. :) I suggest posting the character sheet you are using and an example of the macro. There are probably other ways of doing the things you need it to do.
