Another publishing gifs thread
Without seeing your GIFs, it's hard to know what's happening. My first guess is that the file size is really large and that is impacting the playback.
Generally, GIFs can become very large files and will not load as fast as other content, which is why they play fine locally but bog down when playing online which is dependent on how the content is being served and received over the network. I had someone recently say their header GIF in Rise wasn't playing well and when he shared it, it was almost 1.5 GB. It didn't work for his course, but it was the best looking GIF I've ever seen. :)
Also, there are many ways that GIFS can be encoded which impacts their playback. So you can always look at how the GIF is made and encoded and play around with options.
Many people are using alternatives to GIFs now. That may be something to consider. This blog post does a good job explaining some pros/cons and viable alternatives.
Thanks for the link. Very helpful.
