Animated GIFs that work on the forum?

[Mysterae_]

I've created an animated gif from a video (using DaVinci Resolve 19) and hosted it on OneDrive, to post on my project log but when testing it only shows as the first static image.

Does this forum allow animated gifs and if so, is there anything special I should be doing so that it works?

Or is it pointless and should just host it on a video site and share it that way?

I don't recall seeing gifs around these parts, so presumably not.

I'm sure I had seen some videos posted that were actually high quality gifs. Judging from the file sizes of the gifs I've made they are larger than the videos!

@mrk does it all the time.

That's who I've seen using it! Any advice @mrk ?

Thank you @mrk I'll give that a whirl. Should I copy the above text before it self destructs?!
