    Noticing posts like this in the Funny Pic thread: https://www.indianagunowners.com/fo...-funny-pic-thread-pt-8-a-558.html#post7544316

    It seems to function like a WEBM... even though it only seems functional because it's linking to some Facebook source.

    Is this a Facebook-exclusive feature of vBulletin? Or is it possible to get embedded GIFV or WEBM working outside of Facebook (imgur and gfycat, for example)?

    The advantages are there... (much faster loading time, much smaller file size)

    I doubt it. They can't even get the Youtube embedding to work right!

    Nice! Is that in your standard playlist or your "private" one for when you're feeling randy?

    It helps me cope with the disappointment of not being in charge of the forum I seem to hate but refuse to leave.


    As for the YouTube embedding, just take the “s” of the “https” in the link.

    Well, yeah. But it fits within the description of not getting embedding to work right if you have to fake http to fool it into working.

    I know that but all they have to do is add a sub-line with https in the embedding command in the admin panel.

    So where we at?

    Can we bring this forum into this millennium and out of the 90s?

    Can't do GIFV.
    Can barely parse links.
    Image scaling is just all over the place.

    Maybe something new is in order?
