Details
If a picture is worth a thousand words, an animated picture is certainly more vivid than a static image and worth a million.
It is really quick and simple to make an animated GIF by combining two or more images into one with a software application or online service, such as those recommended in this article Best Free GIF Animator.
Or rather, it is even quicker to get one from tons of readily made animated GIFs from Giphy, available on the web and as a mobile app. It puts almost countless GIFs in a huge database for you to explore at your fingertips.
After selecting a GIF, you can download it to your device, or share it directly with your friends via social channels such as Facebook, WhatsApp, Twitter, Instagram, Messenger, etc., provided from within the app or on the web.
Giphy also has a built-in GIF maker that allows you to combine multiple images into an animated GIF image, or trim your video into a GIF with captions or stickers. Trimming a video into a GIF is pretty fast but it is limited to a file size of 100 MB or a duration of not more than 15 seconds. Supported video formats include mp4, mov, mpg and m4v.
Open a free Giphy account, you can then upload your favorite GIFs to one easy-to-find place, with an option to save privately for your own use, or with another option to publish them for anyone to explore and share.
