investigating Animated GIFs as thumbnails

[Mathieu T]

Hi.

 

When someone get assigned to a bunch of shot that look the same, it would be nice to have a animated thumbnails to be able to differenciante shots.

 

Something like Google+ photos or http://giphy.com/

 

I did tried to upload a gif as tumbnail but it end up like a static image.

 

Thanks

Hi Mathieu,

 

we actually had support for animated gifs two years ago, but we removed the support when artists started to be a bit to creative with their user thumbnails. But I think it's a valid request for task/shot thumbnails and I will run it via the team.

 

thanks,

Fredrik

We could get administative right for those kind of feature. 

It can be only available with the api.

 

Also a like the fact that it only play animation when mouse over. So the page stay static until needed.

Hi Mathieu,

 

it sounds like a nice feature. I like the idea of only playing it on mouse over to reduce the risk of slowing down the browser.

 

I have added it as a feature request.
