    Hey all,

    A couple people have asked me about this already, so I'll just post the information here for anyone to refer to.

    This may not be the 'best' method, I am by no means a technology wizard. This is just the method I use, which works for me. If I come up with different options later, I'll include them. Feel free to share your own!

    Step 1:
    Find your GIF. There are a lot of websites out there with GIFs for your every need and want. Do some googling and find one that works for you. In this example, I'm going to be using giphy, one of the more popular sites.

    I've decided to go with this Deadpool GIF.

    Step 2:
    You need to get your .gif link. There's a few ways to do this, the easiest is by using the link provided on most websites. On giphy, you can click "Copy Link". You will then have a few options, but "GIF Link" is the one we want, as shown below.

    Additionally, if these links aren't provided for you for whatever reason, you can right click on the GIF, and select copy image address. You will have to ensure it ends in .gif and fits into the link box in the next step, or this option won't work for you.

    Step 3:
    Now that you have the link, you need to locate your signature option on the site. Hover over your name at the top, and a box of selections should drop down. The second one is "Signature", click on it.

    Now that you're there, you should have a text box. You're going to want to click on the image option at the top of the text box, next to the smiley face and emoticons. Doing so will prompt you to enter a link, which is where we want to put the link we copied earlier. To do so, you can press CTRL+v at the same time. Ensure the link has .gif at the end of it, and click insert.

    Your GIF should now appear in the text box, you can save and return back to the forums.

    Happy posting!
