Quick Important Question

This may be kind of silly, as I've legitimately and definitely have never done this before so please bear with me on this, but.........how do we post GIFS?

I would like to make a GiF or 2 to show feats but I have absolutely no idea how to create one, sadly. So if someone could assist me in telling me just how we can make Gifs I would really appreciate it.

Thank you.

Alright well for source code, just add [[ ]] around this

File:Tanya_bomb.gif|thumb|300px


(The Tanya Bomb is the gif you wanna use after uploading, and the thumb and pixel size are unnecessary but you can use them to edit the size)
 
Are you using source mode in typing by default by any chance? If yes, it'd be easiest to just switch to visual mode and upload from there, then switch back to source afterwards.

I'm using visual mode by default but I switch to source all the time for stuff like quoting, cleaning up and what not.
 
Alright. But how do we make the short clips, like the one above, to post them in the first place? Im sorry if im being difficult by any chance its just kinda confusing.
 
Short clips? Did you mean GIFs?

Wat
Or did you mean a slideshow like the one in this guy's profile?
If it's the latter, I don't really know but I got this code from his profile.

< gallery type="slideshow" >

GIFname1.png|GIFcomment1

GIFname2.gif|GIFcomment2

GIFname3.gif|GIFcomment3

< /gallery >

(I dunno if it worked or not but I tried posting the slideshow gallery here)

  • Excalibur Galatine: The Reborn Sword of Victory
  • Activatio
  • Activation in Fate/Extella
Lastly, did you wish to know HOW TO MAKE a GIF?
If yes, then I'd suggest downloading a program called Screen2Gif where it will record what's in the borders you set on your screen, then have small edits afterwards. Think of it as a screenshot videocamera that saves as a GIF.

Here's one made from it. Bruce Lee video recorded from youtube.
