Posting Gifs On Facebook

Posting Gifs On Facebook: GIFs have rather formally made their way to Facebook.

Posting Gifs On Facebook


Giphy, a new start-up from tech studio Betaworks, just developed a workaround to post GIFs directly into your Facebook Timeline.

You still need to strike play, as you would certainly with a video, in order to see the computer animation. Yet it's basically the very same experience.

UPDATE from a Facebook speaker: "Facebook does not support animated GIFs."

If you intend to share a GIF on Facebook, initial directly over to Giphy.



Giphy allows you to search through all the GIFs that designers have published to the website. Once you locate a GIF you want to share, click the Facebook symbol below the computer animation.



A common Facebook share box will turn up. From there, you can determine if you intend to share it on your Timeline, a good friend's timeline, in a group, or in an exclusive message.
