I am thinking exactly that same thing.

That's exactly what I'm trying to do and it isn't working. I think I've been blocked from posting gifs or pics somehow.

You put the whole <a href> stuff in there. That's HTML. You need just the URL to the GIF in the img tags. If you use Chrome, you can right click the image and hit "Copy Image URL" or "Copy Image Location" in Firefox.

edit: looks like MFP isn't correctly parsing the image file with the %20 in it. If I replace it with a space it works.. Here's a similar image from a different site:

I've tried exactly what you have suggested and it still is NOT working for me.

You're putting in the URL of the HTML page that contains the image. The URL you're putting in also contains all the text and formatting and ads and everything else. You need the URL of the image all by itself.

What browser are you using?

Your link ( http://gifb.in/0ksv ) is bad.
