So I've been on Subeta for what feels like forever and I still don't know how to post gifs in posts. Could someone please let me know what html or sCode format I need to use? And do I have to have the gif downloaded and saved before posting it? Thanks!

The gif needs to be hosted somewhere online and you need the direct link to it (so the URL would end in .gif, or .png or whatever for an image). Then just use the image sCode

Hi there. To post a gif you just use the image code [img=]https://media.wired.com/photos/593221d8b8eb31692072dedf/master/w_582,c_limit/MJ-giphy.gif[/img]

results in

Don't save the image to your computer as you are not actually uploading to Subeta, you are only linking. And the image has to start with https not just http

EDIT: Oops! I was too slow.

Thank you both!!! :) I really appreciate it.

Edit: Okay I tried and it still doesn't work. I'm sure I'm missing something but I don't know what. Unless I should try a different website for gifs. I was on photobucket.

Are you posting it in the forums or trying to add it to your signature or something? If you want it to show up next to your posts, you'd just use the forum image page and paste in the direct link. You don't want the image tags there.

If you're trying to add it to your signature or just the post content, that's when you'd use the code. Photobucket should work as long as you make sure you've got the direct link that ends in .gif because if there's anything extra after that part, it won't work

Thank you! I like yours too. I have that exact wig but haven't decided how to incorporate it into an HA.

I finally figured out what I was doing wrong lol. It was that darn equal sign and the quote marks. Smh. I was trying to post it for a contest. Thank you for letting me know about the forum image page. I'm sure I'll be figuring that out later. I'm feeling very accomplished now lol. Wrote a full set of lyrics for the first time in a year and finally...after countless attempts figured out how to post/share a gif. :)

Thank you both for all of your help!!! <3
