Question

OpenStudy Animated Gif v2
***************************

Answer 1

Hello! :)
I decided that since many users wanted animated gifs on their profiles pictures, I decided to make that possible! ^_^

Just ask if you want you an Animated Gif as your profile picture! ^_^ Note: no inappropriate or objectionable gifs will be posted...

For now, it only works on chat and PMs, but it's expanding! ^_^

So, paste this code to see yours, and everyone else's GIFs:

javascript:(function(){document.body.appendChild(document.createElement('script')).src=' http://www.dumbsearch.com/chat/gif.js'; })();

and if you want to add your GIF to it, just write here... :) Note that no inappropriate GIFs will be allowed, as I mentioned before... :)

It's just a fun little thing, and it's not a hack: because only if you paste the code you will see all the Animated GIF profiles, and you will only have a GIF if someone pastes the code.

Cheers! ^_^

Note: If any admin or mod is against this fun time-killer, just tell me, and I'll remove this thread and tale down the system from my site. :)

Answer 2

It's an optional and opt-out thing, kinda like a Chrome extension... :)

Answer 3

And if you're worried that it may distract from the studying side of the website, well, don't worry, because it only works on PMs and chat for now... :)

Answer 4

How do you even see it? Like where do I paste it into?

Answer 5

into the address bar

Answer 6

I did..but it won't work..

Answer 7

It should...
Open the chat windows.

Answer 8

it's working for me

Answer 9

Remember that it strips the "javascript:" beginning part of the URL, so you may have to put back that part...
In Chrome, it strips it, so when you paste it Googles it.

Answer 10

Doesn't work for me.

Answer 11

It should.
It currently works on the chat windows...
Paste it in the address bar.
Currently, Aripotta and I have animated GIFs.

Answer 12

sean, would people just post the gif's url on this thread?

Answer 13

Yes, aripotta.

Answer 14

If it gets too large, I'll make a little page on my site for submitting them.

Answer 15

did you get it working, @karatechopper ?

Answer 16

Nope.

Answer 17

what does it do?
You have to paste it in your address bar
and it works on chat.

Remember to re-write the "javascript:" begining part if it gets deleted, as Chrome strips them..

Which browser ?

Answer 18

I'm on FF.

Answer 19

It doesn't do anything..

Answer 20

Karate, which browser ?

Answer 21

Chrome. I retyped javascript in it too
I put it in my address bar and then I pressed enter and it all wwent away and yeah.

Answer 22

what happened when you clicked enter ?

Answer 23

BTW it's javascript:

Answer 24

with the column

Answer 25

it just erased it, yeah I put "javascript:" in

Answer 26

you mean it made the page blank ?

Answer 27

OpenStudy turned white ?
What excatly happened ?

Answer 28

BTW go on chat
the only way to know to test it is to look at my username, or aris
we both have animated GIFs

Answer 29

I'M SO HAPPY

Answer 30

aw, thanks @AriPotta

Answer 31

I don't understand..

Answer 32

OHHH..I GET IT.

Answer 33

Don't understand what ?
The purpose of this code is that
paste it in your address bar
then, everyone who has asked to have an animated GIF profile picture, it should reflect on the chat

For now, @AriPotta and I have animated GIF pictures.

Answer 34

Did it work ?

Answer 35

I posted it into a blank page...didn't know I had to post it into this one..yeah it works..

Answer 36

nooo. post it on this page

Answer 37

the one you're on now

Answer 38

then click enter and they should show up

Answer 39

i know thats what I just did and it works..but it only stays for a lil while?

Answer 40

nvm, it works all the time

Answer 41

lol

Answer 42

ari
do you think it would be a good idea to make the animated icons accessible everywhere ?
or is it good, just on chat and PM?

Answer 43

EVERYWHERE

Answer 44

and if it's distracting for somebody, they can just turn it off

Answer 45

HAHA
alright!
BTW when someone changes a GIF, or someone adds a new one
you have to refresh your page to reflect it ;)
Like I just changed mine! :)

Answer 46

Only works on Google Chrome :/

Answer 47

aw, opcode
I'll work on making it more cross-browser

and no, it also works on Safari

Answer 48

neat , good job

Answer 49

thanks, @modphysnoob ! :)
Do you want any animated GIF for your profile ?

Answer 50

not now, maybe later, thanks

Answer 51

alright ^_^

Answer 52

Do you think you could do one with a kid doing a karate kick?

Answer 53

sure. :)
Show me the URL

Answer 54

Oh I have to find one!! Okay hold on :)

Answer 55

only draw back is that , other user have to type that code to see your gif

Answer 56

yes
But many people are doing it, already ! ^_^

Answer 57

I did, and it worked until I refreshed

Answer 58

People who pasted the code:
refresh your page, and re-paste it if you want the new changes to be reflected. The change is the fact that now the animated GIFs are universal across OS.

Answer 59

@opcode what exactly does it do on Firefox ?

Answer 60

:D

Answer 61

It does nothing ^_^>.

Answer 62

Guys!
There was a code bug which only allowed it to work properly in Safari/Chrome!!

try this:

javascript:(function(){document.body.appendChild(document.createElement('script')).src=' http://www.dumbsearch.com/chat/gif.js'; })();void 0;

Answer 63

Still doesn't work on FireFox.

Answer 64

ari... so many butt shots.

Answer 65

LOL
@poopsiedoodle do you like the concept ?

Answer 66

Yeah. But make it work even after refreshing. :3

Answer 67

aha
well that would require a Chrome extension or something...
But you might as well create a bookmark with the javascript code so each time you press that it will make it work...

Answer 68

;)

Answer 69

@dumbsearch2
You can inject Javascript with a Chrome extension.
I'm sure of it, I may be able to do this I'll just try it later :P

Answer 70

Yes, I know that @Opcode
That's what I was saying "well that would require a Chrome extension or something..."
Yes, that would be nice if you tried ^_^

Answer 71

Hey, if anyone wants a GIF for their profile pic, just ask... ^_^
And I'll add it to the system as I stated in my OP.

Answer 72

@opcode IDK why you unfanned me, but anyways, to reply to your PM you gotta fan me BTW...

Answer 73

@dumbsearch2

Answer 74

Yes I did.
