Note: i have also tried changing GIF hosting sites to no success. Give me a link to this gif and I'll try it. If you can post images, there should be no problem to post GIFs too, there are no restrictions.

Since copper members are able post images like jr. members and higher ranks, I think the Op need to learn what BbCodes are best to use when it comes to images whether a gif or not.

To test if it works for Newbies, just post this: Code: [quote author=BitPappa link=topic=214616.msg2261159#msg2261159 date=1369437149] This was the link i tried to use That's .mp4 instead of .gif.https://imgur.com/gallery/oSRxWZX (https://imgur.com/gallery/oSRxWZX) I tried your other .gif too, it didn't work. Maybe it's caused by using imgur.com, try tinypic.com and see if it works. Title: Re: NOT ABLE TO POST GIF ON FORUM Post by: TheBeardedBaby on November 04, 2018, 10:19:48 PM You want to post this>
https://im2.ezgif.com/tmp/ezgif-2-28cec09196a4.gif But the forum has file size limit. (see the reference below) In addition imgur converts big gifs to vgif which is the case with your link. Be sure when you post that the link leads to the file itself, like in the example below Code: [img]https://im2.ezgif.com/tmp/ezgif-2-28cec09196a4.gif[/img] You can use ezgif.com to compress the gifs you try to post and then upload it to imgur. Ezgif keep your files only 24 hours so the link above will stop working tomorrow. Here is a working link in imgur > https://i.imgur.com/xBGgoK6.gif Code: [img]https://i.imgur.com/xBGgoK6.gif[/img] Reference > Link to the same problem we solved some time ago > https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4907364.0 Title: Re: NOT ABLE TO POST GIF ON FORUM Post by: Bitcoin_Arena on November 04, 2018, 10:48:15 PM Thank so much... it was definitely the GIF size that was a barrier :)
