Try tinypic instead. Animated gifs usually are automatically converted to gifv/webm/mp4 after uploading them on imgur, and you are usually provided 2 links one to the gifv as the direct link and the other to the normal gif. since the forum still doesn't accept webm/gifv it doesn't let you post it or gives a broken image.

When I get a .webm link, changing it to .gif usually works. Otherwise I just open up the share links pop-up, copy the link in the BB Code section, then get rid of the [/img] bits. It never used to be so much trouble. I'm not sure why imgur changed it to the way it is now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
100 [JKSDF] Cruiser_YahagiKai Beta Testers 545 posts 2,691 battles Report post #9 Posted January 12, 2017 You'll notice that there's an "Original Gif" link on imgur's link list now. However, as has been stated a few times in this thread, it's just removing the "v" from .gifv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not sure why imgur changed it to the way it is now. Saves bandwidth. is fast, has better quality, can use sound, gets rid of color palette limit, and uses less space. Is just to force people to accept the new standard and forget about gif. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
