July 9, 20179 yr I fussed with trying to figure out how to load a gif into a post and failed with numerous approaches until I was finally able to get it to work. Here's what I ended up doing. 1. Go to giphy.com 2. Type your birth year in the search box and numerous gifs will appear. 3. Place cursor on the gif you like, BUT DON'T OPEN IT. 4. See the "copy link" symbol appear and click on it which will automatically copy it to your clipboard. 5. Click on the "Insert Image" icon in BGP 6. Select "From URL" 7. CNTL V from your clipboard into provided box. 8. Uncheck the box that says "Retrieve remote file and reference locally" 9. Click "OK" and it should appear where you want to post it. Referring to instruction Number 3 - It also appears that you could also copy the link by clicking on the gif to open it and follow the "copy link" prompts, but I didn't do it that way because simply clicking on the "copy link" symbol made it a one step process to copy it to my clipboard. Referring to instruction Number 2 - Obviously you can search for anything that you want to, and it doesn't have to be a "year", but I just said that to get straight to the point for the purpose of the thread. Hope this works. Thank you, my friend.
