Earlier today, I received an inquiry about if it was possible to upload animated GIFS to Popedia. After doing a bit of investigating, I have managed to find a solution in how to upload them. Below is a step-by-step guide on how to upload animated GIFS to posts: Step 1:Go to any GIF site and search around for the one you want to use. In this instance, I used Giphy.com. Step 2:
Search for the type of GIF image you want to use. Step 3:
If you use Giphy.com and search for the type of GIF you want to use, you will be directed to a page like this. If you spot a GIF that you would like to use, click on the GIF image.
Step 4:
After you have clicked on the GIF image you want to use, click on "Copy Link". It will be to the right of the image, just above "Download". Step 5:
Once you have clicked "Copy Link", your page should look like this. Copy & Paste the "GIF Link". It is the second link from the top.
Step 6:
After you have copied and pasted the "GIF Link", return back to the Popedia tab. If you're creating a post, click on the "Insert Image" button. It is to the right of the envelope and left of the "video" button. Step 7:
Once you have clicked on the "Insert Image" button, you will receive a pop-up like this. Paste the "GIF Link" into the "Image URL".
Step 8:
Once you have done that, that's it! If you have any concerns or inquiries in regards to how to upload animated GIFS, please let me know.

Welp I tried 😂 Did you copy+paste the "GIF Link" URL? Yes, still didn't do it. It could be my device but I don't understand why it still would not work.

Welp I tried 😂 It’s working for me. SharksFan99, thanks. I’ve actually done this in the past on one other site I used to frequent but never gave it a thought again until now. Nowadays on the occasions I do post them, I’d just saved the image and it usually worked. Obviously ProBoards works slightly different.

I have only tried doing it through Google Chrome on my Laptop, so I haven't tested it on other devices. I'll try to give it a go through my phone later on.
