Hey Jill,

So, even using another site, the items are not downloading in a useable format for you? 

I've not heard of that happening.

Could you try in a different browser perhaps? Do you have a website/URL link to a gif that I could take a look at to see if it works well for me?

It also looks like your email signature came through when you replied via email. You can remove that if needed by clicking ‘Edit’ beneath your response. Here’s a quick Peek video if you need help.

Okay, so I’m using giphy..com (https://giphy.com/gifs/animation-heart-xUA7biF7n8LcAqh4bK/undefined).

I don’t actually see an option to download so perhaps that’s where it’s going wrong? (I’ve tried other sites, too, but this was recommended by someone who was trying to help me previously.)

I see options to copy the link, embed, etc. OR if I right click on the image, I can copy, etc. If I do copy, it saves as a .gif on my computer. But, when I try to insert that into a video, it doesn’t work. I just get a static image with no “giphy” action.

Perhaps I’m just doing it wrong?

Thanks for your help.

Jill

P.S. As far as the signature, I’m just using the email to reply – not posting on the site. When I clicked the link to post directly to the site, I didn’t see this thread (between you and me), so I was confused.

Thanks again.
