    sure you've seen them on your travels

    Just for further clarification "gif" is the extension of the image type, ie imagename.gif and is a acronym for Graphics Interchange Format.

    Works fine

    If you have posted a gif and it doesn't work then its more likely image host that doesn't support it. If you have used the add image button and doesnt work then it could be because its using site server as host and animated gif option may be disabled in forum setup.

    Best to use the [img] bbcode instead of add image button, That way the image is hosted externally.

    Example: [img]image url[/img]

    All you need to do is right click image on other site and use the option to copy image link/url then paste into tags like above.

    Also, btw I'm not a "geek" either.
