+Geo-Jeddak Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 (edited) Today I created a page for my new Wherigo, but when I tried to insert an .gif image from https://postimages.org/, I was told to remove it before I could save the page. Is this new? Geocaching.com has always allowed images from third party websites. This new rule may not be a problem for regular images (jpg, png), which you can simply upload to your cache pages image gallery, but what if you want to use a moving image (.gif)? Geocaching.com does not support gif images, so external sites are your only option. Edited September 22, 2020 by Geo-Jeddak Link to comment

+@rthur Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 I think HQ should allow GIF upload... Link to comment

It actually is a problem for any puzzle requiring a png file since uploading those sees them silently transcoded into jpegs. Link to comment
