This works, you can easily post a gif in the comments section.  Thanks

You can probably post it in the comments section. But it seems the image uploading logic limits to only a few extensions. Probably has a technical rea

Thanks, it seems odd that you can post a Gif to the forum, but not your gallery unless its converted into a video

Once converted, you can upload the video to the gallery.
Luxe MuseTue, May 05
Okay, I understand now. I thought you wanted to post a gif here in the forum. You can easily convert your gif to a video (webm or mp4). I use HandBrea

This is my problem: I have Gifs I've created that I'd like to post in my gallery. Not the forum. They aren't on the internet in some remote place I ca

What I have done is, I upload into my gallery, and then link to it from the forum. You can delete the gallery entry thereafter (is not really deleted, but only you can see it).

Obviously, it shouldn't be abused, hosting big files cost money to Renderhub. But for a quick show of something in particular it will work.

I said "add the link" but I meant the link to the image, not to the post.

Oh, @Admin. Please, if this is a TOS violation I'm unaware of, I would love to know.

Yes, I didn't had one with a gif file, and I don't think you can link the video. But a gif file will be similar to the jpg I linked above, it would simply embed the image like thirdeyzennicai showed you.

Also, I belive you can upload your gif file directly in a post, like this one I did: image

Did you use the video portion  of your gallery to upload the gif?

This is my problem: I have Gifs I've created that I'd like to post in my gallery. Not the forum. They aren't on the internet in some remote place I can link to. I need a process I can use to accomplish this. Lux's suggestion is that I might be able to do this directly within the gallery, so I will try it.
