.Gif in signature?

[Shpeckledorf]

Hey guys,

Is it possible to put a .Gif file or link in my signature so it displays it in motion? I already got a video and made the link off of Giphy, but it shows up in my signature as an image error thing.

Any ideas?

You linked to the page instead of using the absolute path to the file (which would be https://media.giphy.com/media/zJJbm4P0YXqNi/giphy.gif)

But I would caution you on a couple of things:

- The image you're wanting to use is 6 megs. No, not necessarily a huge deal considering the advancements in internet speeds, but more and more people are browsing the internet with mobile devices that obviously don't have the same power. Filesize still needs to be a concern. To remedy this, I would consider optimizing the image / reducing the quality to get a lighter file.

- The length of the gif (or number of frames) is very likely also causing the filesize to bloat. Consider trimming it down a bit.

- It's a little disturbing. Just figured I'd throw that out there.

Ill try to trim it a little bit if possible, and lower the quality after I figure out how

Yeah, its disturbing now that I look back at it, but I couldn't stop laughing the first time I saw the video so I thought id make a signature out of it

It's also still 6 megs, despite your efforts to reduce it.

I think it's a hilarious signature. By the way, the text in front of it in the quote box is pushing a lot of the image off of the end of the page.


Remove the quote to show the full image.

There is a chill pill available, and if necessary, I will gladly administer it directly to you. I guarantee that you will not like it.
