Saturday is sad

LaxMOM44

It makes me sad that we don't have a weekly Saturday thread. Here are some suggestions:

Stabby Saturday....what is making you stabby?

Saturday brag day ....what do you want to brag about (also AW Saturday)

Saturday stud...we all post men that are gorgeous

Giffy Saturday....because I love gifs

Any other suggestions?

TradeMama

How about all of the above?

LaxMOM44

Amazing would be if you could combine all four into one epic gif

1and1is3

Saturday stud!!!!!!!111!!!!! Please start one asap!

LaxMOM44

@1and1is3. Done and done

LaxMOM44

Oooh that's a good one and would therefore combine all the random threads I made up to make Saturday feel special

Shelenec

Someone needs to do a tutorial in gifs . I am so not tech savvy! I vote Saturday studs!

LaxMOM44

@shelenec are you mobile bumping?

blush64

I agree a gif tutorial would help. At this point I mobile bump most of the time. Will they still work?

LaxMOM44

Soo on mobile what I do is google the hilarious gif I want to use to impress everyone with my wit. Then I click copy on my iPhone and it copies the address. I then Have to paste it to my stickies app since for some reason my iPhone wont paste onto bump directly from google.

Then I insert the following in the bump text box
First I use an open < then I type

Img src =

Then I paste the gif address (it must end in .gif) all inside quotation marks

Then I close the sideways V

I will take a screen shot to show what that looks like

Lax, your screen shot blew my mind and I clicked post reply on your screen shot instead of the real post reply. Then I couldn't figure out what the eff I did wrong.

What I wanted to reply was that I love Random Crap Saturday and thanks for the gif tutorial!

LaxMOM44

No idea...though in theory it should still work

drhibbard

Like the rando Saturday. Even with an awesome tutorial I feel like there's no way this will work. *Edited to get this bitch to work.

Shelenec

@laxminavkar, yes I mobile bumping.....still working on it. I can't seem to paste once I have copied...

Shelenec

Just trying it out ..

PumpkinAndThePeanut

Because someone brought this up the other day and I can never get enough of it. Also, because I wanted to try Lax's gif instructions. Hope it works.


Aaaand it does not. It was the mannequin gif. Oh well.



I did it!! It worked after I finally found one that ended in .gif. Thanks, Lax.

drhibbard

I think I'm getting the hang of it now. Fingers crossed.

I like the Random idea. Maybe we can call it: aSSorted Saturdays??

Thanks @laxminavkar, I was wondering how to put these in easily on mobile.

I have a problem with the Gifs sometimes.. I'm thinking it may be if there are certain special characters in the URL, it screws up the HTML. It's just a guess. Haven't taken the time to really see..

Here is one that didn't work

The above has a ? And = in it an doesn't work.. Trying it using HTML for the = and ?

Still doesn't work.

Here us one with no special characters in the link.. And it works

LaxMOM44

Can you cut and paste the just address and I'll try. @snowgirl427

LaxMOM44

It could be the =!

snowgirl427

I think it is! This is what I was using to test it:

And good morning!

LaxMOM44

Booo ya I think it's the = sign being there twice

We need like a FAQ sticky. And the gif tutorial could be there.

Shelenec

Maybe?!

Nope! Every gif I look for doesn't end in .gif. Are there any particular sites y'all end up at?
