How do I post an animated gif?

Here is the one I want to post:

Here's a different link to the same gif, in case that helps

Exactly. So what's the trick? I am able to paste it into an email and make it work, but it only shows up as a link when I paste it here on the forum.

Thanks

To insert a photo from another web source, type:

[img=Link_to_image_here]

But don't use the square brackets "[ ]", use the "greater than" and "less than" characters to enclose the img=Link_to_image_here

As such:

Easier to click "ADD PHOTO" above the text field when creating your post. Then click "Choose an existing photo on MP or any other site"
