When I try to upload a picture, it says that gifs are one of the supported file types, yet I can't get any gifs to animate when I upload them from my computer.
This one's a test:

Are you uploading them from a place that shows them as animated gifs or are you uploading from maybe... like... a thumbnail that's just a stillshot?
Also, click on the image of Larry David in the OP. The Filename you'll see says .jpg. On my computer, the file says .gif.
I don't know. This sounds like a complicated problem.
Yeah, thanks for giving it a shot though. I'll see what others have to say. The animations work fine when I upload them on 4chan image boards, but I'm sure these forums use different programs so maybe it's not possible to upload animated GIFs here.
Has anyone had luck uploading animated GIFs from their computer?
Whatever uploads images here probably doesn't render animated gifs. When I searched for the above, google showed it unanimated as it doesn't render animations either. What I did is selected it from search, copied it, pasted to http://snag.gy/, and then copied URL here.
Tried that site, @Chris, and copying it an image there from my computer still just renders the thumbnail. I think I'll have to try uploading it to an independent file host first, then copy it here.
That worked. Guess I'll have to use an independent image hosting site for my GIFs.
