They say that gif is supposed to be pronounced with a “j” sound, but I disagree.

When I have down time, sometimes I like to take videos of my dog, Benson. (He isn’t actually allowed on the sofa, but when no one’s around, I usually let him sit next to me anyways.) Still, I found it pretty funny how he longingly stared out the backyard doors, so I decided to take a funny Snap of it for Snapchat. I had the Snap saved, so I emailed the video to myself, downloaded it onto a free gif maker (ezgif.com) and everything was basically all set from there. It only took me a couple of seconds. Although, the first free gif maker wouldn’t work with me, so I had to change over to this one. In addition, I had to upload my gif onto Imgur because it was too large to download onto my blog. But it worked out.

I’ve never really made a gif before, so I initially thought that it was going to be harder for some reason, but nowadays they have generators for everything. In retrospect, I really shouldn’t be surprised; I’ve used picture editors plenty of times even before I’ve enrolled into this course, so it’s really easy to find something with one Google search. Or maybe Bing or Yahoo, but I never use those search engines, anyway.
