Strange,
When I drag my gif file into the web browser it works. I used photoshop to export it.
But your file works. I have to trouble shoot the Gif file on my end.Thank you and will post here once I find out what is going on.

Hi Leslie,
I figured out what the problem was. I forgot to add frame delay time in photoshop which resolved the problem. Gif really ills the quality. Thanks for the help.
Glad you were able to get that sorted Ahssan. Thanks for sharing an update with me. I'm really not so good with gif files ;)

Yes but the graphic is very poor so I replaced it with video, then realized I can't do the hover effects I want to. I have shared it here if you guys can think you can help. Else I have moved on to place a static image.
Thanks for sharing Ahssan! Looks like some of your fellow community members jumped in to assist you :)

Hi there.
I have the same issue discussed here.
AS Ahssan, I have exported an animated gif using Photoshop CC. It works well on a web browser and powerpoint.
When I import the file on storyline 2, I only get an static image. I don't get any error message. I have checked the delay time and it seems to be ok.
Sadly, I cannot share the file.
What can I do?
Hello Xavier and welcome to E-Learning Heroes :)
Thanks for reaching out and letting us know what you are experiencing with your gif.
I was able to identify an issue we have reported surrounding high-resolution gifs. A workaround listed is to reduce the resolution or quality of the gif, and I've also seen reducing the size to be a solution for some customers. Hopefully one of those will be able to help you out as well.
I'll attach this conversation to our report.

Hi Leslie and thank you.
You are right. As soon as I reduced the resolution of the gif it resolved the issue.
Many thanks Thanks so much for letting us know that it worked for you in the meantime.

Hi there,
I was trying to import a high-resolution gif in the storyline and seems like it is still not possible. Did we find any other solution for this?
I really don't want to decrease the resolution for my gif. Or can you help me with the settings I need to export gifs from Photoshop without losing the quality?
