Not on tablets/mobiles. IIRC, Android and the iOS have native video players, but on both .gifs are as glitchy as hell. Also, even on an average laptop with an average internet connection, the first playthrough of each .gif takes an absolute age. Took well over 30 seconds for the first playthrough of the AEK reload. I would use FRAPS to highlight the problem, but that'd just exaggerate it... Also, considering the number of things we need to do at the moment, isn't this just ''going over stuff we've already got'!?' All of the above pages have YT videos on them, so we don't really need to go over previously covered ground/ Also, from what I see, there is no conclusive argument that supports having .gifs other than "having an automatic procedure would be better", when even now we're having to put them in galleries because of the induced latency that they cause. I know I'm getting a bit shirty about this, but we really need to get on with stuff that we're missing.
