GIF question

lplions · March 2013

How come when I try to post gifs, they don't actually move unless you click on them? I'm always like

(although this one will probably be the same way...)

Or do they move for everyone else and just not when I look at them? I'm so confused.

Where are you finding your gifs and how are you adding them to your posts?

Here's my method
Search for the desired gif on Google.
Click the image. The Gif when opened will begin to move.
Drag and drop the image into the post.

Last time I gave these instructions someone asked what "drag and drop" means. It means click and hold on the image and move your mouse to the post box before releasing the mouse button. The image will move.

The key is to make sure to click on the image first and copy the big image that appears, not the image from the search results.

Yea, I was saving them to my computer, then clicking the tree button.

Hmm. Need to try the D&D method now.

Oh yay! Thank you!

Yep, you were being too formal with your Gifs. Just shove em around, yell at em a bit, maybe give them a half-hearted threat. Just make sure you do it lazily.

I've been wondering how to place gifs in posts. Thanks for the explanation!

There are going to be so many more gifs around here now that we know how this works.
