Posted April 17Apr 17 Do you allow your members to add GIF images to their posts? I recently enabled GIPHY support on my forum, and I wish I would've done it sooner. Online Poker Forums - Home Game Leaderboards - Poker Affiliate Forums
April 17Apr 17 Administrators I also have giphy enabled on my forum. I can honestly say it enables users to more fun on their forum posts and topics. It’s a good way to boast engagement and overall community bonding. Owner of a Virtual Pets Forum.

April 20Apr 20 Content Team Yep I allow members to add GIF images on Thee Zone. I've had a few members use them too in the past, it really does make a conversation more interesting and engaging! Love roleplaying games? So do we on RPG Haven!
April 21Apr 21 Administrators Wasn't GIPHY going to be charging for access, or has started already. They charge for commerical(api usage). Some customers were sent a notice about it, which was brought up on the Xenforo forum. https://xenforo.com/community/threads/giphy-to-start-charging-a-lot.226648/ There hasn’t been any new news regarding this in ages though.
