    It is no longer possible to upload animated gifs to Pinterest

    in General Discussions

    If you try to upload an animation, it displays as a still image. It seems a strange decision as there are many gif artists on that platform.

    That's bad news. Do they prefer video? Videos don't automatically play either. YouTube videos do animate when you hover your mouse over them.

    Actually this new gif is the only one that is animating when I go here:

    I see a pattern. Your taller gifs are animating.

    Pinterest's videos automatically play, so I' converting gifs to video The taller gifs are videos

    Maybe you could put these in YouTube also? When you hover over YouTube thumbnails they play.

    I have accumulated 2800 followers so unlike some gif artists there I am going to stay with them I could put them in You Tube, but problem is Pinterest want videos in portrait mode.

    This new one plays better than the Betty Boop on battery video.

    Betty Boop was very much an experimental animation and not very successful

    I've done a few 16:9 to 9:16 conversions like this. Videos on mobile are this size:

    I may experiment by doing something like that

    I'm curious to see how a test 9:16 video animation might perform.

    Yeah that's a great idea! It's 9:16. The editor I use can do any size.

    Changing the subject completely. After a month of decorating, relaying floors, changing curtains etc, we had the house valued and the estate agent was so full of praise for the place, ie..."Lovely Kitchen" "Lovely garden" etc that Dot is not so sure if she wants to move from her lovely house......

    Looking for something similar to this in Bexhill 2 bedroom detached bungalow for sale in Kent Close, Bexhill-on-Sea, TN40 (rightmove.co.uk)

    Bexhill sounds good. Just don't do a Brexit on me and not leave a forwarding address.

    We are very good friends and I will always be in contact with you. You do not know just how much support you have given me at times. Its nearly 8am here, I got up at 6, had some mushrooms cooked in butter on toast and then went for my two-mile walk. Just checked my Giphy account and I had 134 million views yesterday and I still do not have an official artist's channel.

    You too have given me much needed support!

    I made another video out of this crummy one which is the wrong size for the modern format: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ESZpBYtQj44

    My video is here and it is in a modern format:

    You know about how gifs should be bigger nowadays.

    Sorry to hear your problems with Pinit..

    You'd think they might have the manners to inform people like yourself, who actually post their own work.. At least you found out as to why..

    Sending greets from a sunny!! ?? part of the world.. Hope your all ok... TC & SS

    They are not the best at communicating unless they want something, they were very keen to get me as a creative member and I get invites to their online creators meetings.. People like them and Giphy could learn a lot about communication skills from Tenor who are always in contact with me. Peeing down with rain at the moment and I have not had my morning walk today.but understand we are in for another heatwave soon Hope everything is OK with you
