Topic: [GUIDE] ᗌ Embed GIF's in your own articles (Easy way) ᗏ (Read 632 times)

About the bump I would like to add  
I think that the usefulness of a gif in this forum or at least on boards where a certain level of penetration is required with the idea of an ON-TOPIC gif has great strength, but sometimes certain gifs in certain conversations are too unwise.
_______
Updates in any post sometimes go unnoticed when one makes quick reviews of readings to try to hit a good answer or find an update, so if you allow me I will include that.







I think that should be more the focus on giving weight to the post in its content.

Anyway, as far as you can, stay away from shitgifs in inappropriate places ... and watch out, I like shitgif / memes but they have their time and place.

I think the discussion would be to create a gallery of the forum in gifs or images that are available under the explanation of the OP to use, I think we all know today where the gifs are.

But useful gifs that can help us add value to our post require an additional plus that is not complex in reality to make them, in fact there are many websites that do it without resorting to any software, but getting the idea in that gifs is very staff depending on the case.

____
The process in imgur.com is the same as the one mentioned in the OP.
Note that if you find a gif larger than 2.5 MB it will be blocked.

You can change the dimensions by adding the following code:
img height=xxx


There are several associated topics in B&H.

BUMP!

I like GIF animation, and I think that here on a rather serious forum, they can liven up the communication a little. It is very convenient, as they say: "instead of a thousand words" show all emotions once.
Today, such animations are more convenient than watching a large video, they are fast and soundless, and moreover, this format compresses the image well without losing quality, which is very important for small pictures.
But of course, the measure is needed in everything, if there are a lot of such images, then every second flickering will be decently annoying.

I don't think the administration would want users to have to make changes to their browser configuration to not be annoyed by random gifs in threads.

I was not aware of this feature, but I hope it is not misused because a lot of gifs seem annoying and are not suitable for discussions.
What is the smallest file size for the image, and does anyone know if there are other restrictions other than the size? The same restrictions apply to images with PNG extension.

In Firefox: about:config, search: image.animation_mode, set to "once" (type the word).
Sometimes it takes me months to realize a certain image is animated.

I thought there is already an existing topic right here about the submission of GIF, base on my experience most of the people used GIF in WO or in Services (like a previous contest to show the process)

I want to share too the GIF I created on my first event joined in bitcointalk discord halving party handled by Cyrus.

This is not a problem today, but I can potentially see gifs becoming disallowed if enough people are sufficiently annoying with their GIFs.

This is after all a discussion forum, not a place that people should primarily be posting memes.

It's also worth noting that the GIF image size  should not be more than 2.5MBs, any image above the limit will show the bitcointalk image proxy error.


Perhaps giphy.com is a much better site when creating GIF images, Imgur instead automatically generates links of mp4 extensions which do not work in the forum

To be honest, I really did not know that it was possible to post a gif in the forum until I stumbled upon this post. I will be definitely using and adding these gifs to my post to make it more dramatic and entertaining.

I really appreciate your work and I would like to express my gratitude by applying what I learned from this tutorial. This would be my first gif here in the forum also!
