Hi,

I've made a GIF via. Photoshop and exported it as a GIF, but when I open them they just show as images and not a GIF/video.




Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Hi,

 

I've just tried to open the GIF in Finder, but I've tried to insert it here as well.



It is looping forever and I have 11 frames. 


You have to open it in an actual browser (Safari, Chrome or Firefox) to see the web animation.

Hi,

 

Unfortunately this is exactly what I did. The problem comes after I've exported as a GIF, but it won't play as a GIF.

In which web browser are you testing your animated GIF?

How many frames does your animation contain?

Is it looping Forever?

How big is the image (height x width) in pixels?

 

This GIF is 228 Frames, 518px X 480px.  File size is 697 KB.  Loop is Forever.
