Who doesn’t love a good GIF! They add personality to your posts. There are times that I add multiple GIFs to a single post. What I didn’t realize is that some GIF are very large in size. They can slow the load time of your page. With slow load time, you lose viewers, which means a loss of upvotes, follows, resteems and comments. So, take a couple extra steps to ensure you are saving your audience time and bandwidth!
@enchantedspirit said in the recent @unmentionable post… Curation with Style: The Best of the Unmentionables Ep 2
…do yourself and your audience a favor. Don't waste their time making them wait on what you want to say and show them. Once spent, time is a resource you can never reclaim. Nobody has scads to spare. Be a considerate blogger ... and a good Steemit citizen.

yeah, i've been using it for a while now to stash my SBD, it pays some dividends, too!
tbh sending you that tip was by accident ;) but still, ezgif is great and i'd love to see more great gifs without unneeded pageload on steemit, so a well deserved accident it was!

Once again, a post that should be of great help to many, including me. I haven't had the need to test it yet, but the more gifs are shrunk, the better I'll like it.
