    Grrrrrrr

    There is a site you can use to turn youtube videos into gifs. I forget what it's called though. Google it, and I'm sure you'll find one. :)

    Jeep - when you use photobucket, on the right side of the screen there are various codes you can copy, one of them says direct link. Copy and paste that, then put the img tags around it.

    Edit to add: what you copy/paste should end in .gif or whatever your image type is (.jpg, .png, etc)

    imgur is the best out right now, low resources, and just works.

    good job everyone.

    Thanks for your help. I will check that site out

    Since the instructions were already shown on how to post images.

    The easiest way to obtain images and/or gifs (to me at least) is to use google.

    Basically go to images.google.com (or www.google.com then type what you want and then hit images) once at images.google.com type whatever you're looking for we'll use "kitty attacks internet" once you see your results to limit them down to gifs click on the "Search Tools" icon that's underneath the search field and to the right. Then click on Type and a drop down menu will popup and you can select "animated".

    Alternatively you can also click the cog to the right and select "Advanced Search" which will take you to another page. From there you can select Type and choose Animated. Once you do that select Advanced Search at the bottom to return back to the searches.

    Then you can click on the image you'd like to see, give it a moment to load and it should animate. Once you decide on your image right click it and select "copy Image URL". I picked the third over.

    To test you can paste this in your post/notepad/Word and it should look like

    http://gifrific.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Kitten-attacks-camera.gif

    The things to remember are the .gif or file extension at the end. There are some images that will have a long string attached after the file extension and these won't typically work. There are ways around that but for this scope we'll ignore those. Once you have the URL (where the image is) you can put your image tags in.

    I hope this helps all of the steps were done in Chrome so if you use another browser the wording may be different.

    Don't forget the [.img][./img] before and after the URL to post it here. (remove the . when posting a gif. :)
