1. Get a Soup.io account http://www.soup.io - Mo Kargas

2. Upload gif to your new Soup.io account - Mo Kargas

3. Come back to FF, go to add new service at friendfeed.com/< YOUR USERNAME>/services - Mo Kargas

Add a new Custom RSS/Atom feed. Enter the URL of your new Soup.io account ie. http://mokargas.soup.io - Mo Kargas

TwitPic? - Andrew Trinh

Done - Mo Kargas

I'm sure other services can be used, but Soup.io is the only one that worked off the bat easy - Mo Kargas

Anyone know a size/resolution limit? - Andrew Smith

@Andrew I don't think there is one on size. I've seen Alejandro post 3mb GIF's with no issues. Resolution I'm not so sure - Mo Kargas

but what about rooms (that you do not admin) ? :< - Tim Hoeck

Posting any URL to TwitPic will provide an image in the post but I'm not too sure how it goes for Soup.io. - Andrew Trinh from IM

Posterous seems to work too. - Kol Tregaskes

if you use twitpic, it will be resized and some of the gif may be cut off. - Alfredo

Mo, you are the man. Thank you! - Haggis (Sean Loyless)

Is there a list anywhere of the sites that automatically post images to FF when you put their RSS/MRSS feeds into here? I want to get images from Google Reader to show up here. If not from GReader, then I need a few other options. Looking for something that's not blocked at work (so not Twitpic, Posterous, similar sites). - Kamilah Gill

thanks - Richard Lawler

What software do you use to convert/create your animated gifs? - Ken Morley

This walkthrough with GIMP shows how to do it from a video file: http://friendfeed.com/rjcc... http://www.youtube.com/watch... - Richard Lawler

Richard, do you need Linux to run Gimp? - Ken Morley

nope.I'v pretty much only used it in windows - Richard Lawler

I was bad tempered all day until I finally found this post. Now I know how to post Gifs to FriendFeed. Thanks, Mo :) - Baard @ Pixum
