Apparently,
it is believed that Facebook does not support animated GIF images.
This belief is correct to some extent. However, as you can see from
this post ,
you definitely can insert an animated GIF image into a fcaebook post.
ITS NOw possible to post moving animated gif images in facebook . but
how , very few people know about this ...
So how does one add an animated GIF into a Facebook post? Very simple really.
The statement that 'FACEBOOK does not support animated images' only
means to say that the like google+ it does not support such images. In
other words, if you try to upload an animated GIF image in your
facebook post though browsing , the GIF file is converted
automatically into a static PNG file during the upload process. and
some time it will show error notice that image is not 180 pixel.
So how does one add an animated GIF into a Facebook post? Very simple really.
So I Made this tutorial just follow step by step .
- Just login directly into your Facebook. All images added to posts on facebook are actually uploaded on facebook server .
- Chose any free or any image
host on the internet that allows to hotlink an uploaded image and
upload your moving/ animated gif or any image to that host. like
freeimagehosting.com
Let's say you upload your image to photobucket.com. Get the url of the image location and put it in this code.
- Get the url of the image location and put it in this code.
<img src="http://myimagelocation.gif" />
Replace the phrase -- http://myimagelocation.gif -- in the code with the url address of your image.
if u dont wanted to upload any gif images on any image hosting server
then use this Application in facebook .or THERE is another option go to HERE and then you can right click on the image which is moving and choose something like "image location " the exact wording for that option in the right click menu depend on the browser that you are using and you can get the url OF the images in this way
. - For exmple in Internet Explorer Right click MENU would have the 'properties' , its the last one of the option , and you can copy the url address of your images after you click on 'properties' first .
- Copy the url of your image place this in html code in images tag as mentioned above
like <img src="http://myimagelocation.gif" />
Replace the phrase -- http://myimagelocation.gif -- - And Then paste the completed code in your facebook note in the place where you want your images to go
