Which Sites can I get gifs from and am having difficulty posting

I don't have any specific site I use. Well, unless you count Google. I just google 'what-I-want-a-gif-of gif'.

    How are you getting the URL of the gif?



    I tap and hold on the gif, select 'copy', go to the address bar at the top, clear and delete whatever is in there, paste in there, then select all and copy what was pasted (you need to do this, because the act of pasting the copied image into the address bar generates the Direct link), and then paste this into a forum post, with the normal img tags around it.

    Once you get the URL for the gif go to a site like tinypic and upload it there then you'll get a new link.
