    Embedding a gif

    How do I embed a gif in a post?

    I can't upload it to BG bucket because it is too large.

    The gif I wanna use is here: http://twitpic.com/e1qzkj

    Just use img tags as normal, maybe try a rehosting it somewhere if that wasn't working? We stopped accepting hotlinks to certain hosts because of malware flags.

    I'm pretty sure that twitter won't let you hotlink gifs like that.

    Considering your gif is over 5MB in file size and that BG Bucket limit is 3MB you could use a service like this to shrink it down: http://ezgif.com/optimize
