For those of you who have successfully submitted gifs. What tool did you use to make them? I’ve tried a few websites and haven’t been able to get anything that successfully posts.

#14

Thanks for posting this, we honestly didn’t even know this happened until it was posted here :smiley:

Some backstory: We were purposefully running the wrong side auto for testing purposes, and as such this would never have happened in an official match. While I would love to see this GIF win the contest for this week, I understand why practice matches aren’t included for that reason.

Did this not tip the Switch in red’s favor? Was one cube not enough to trigger scoring or was there another cube on the other side?

Balancing Act

After getting stuck under the scale (red side), 706 knocks 930 free. In doing so, the robot stays perfectly balanced on end for several seconds before gravity eventually wins out (the reaction from the ref in the top left sums it up well)

I used imgur - I didn’t have an account but it lets you authenticate with google. Once I made an account that is associated with my google account, it has a video to gif tool.
Imgur

Good luck. You can PM me if you have more questions.

EDIT: gif didn’t go through for me either first time.

Make sure the url has .gif on the end

#23

[Not an entry]
I’ve been using giphy.com. It seems imgur converts gifs to movies, so embedding doesn’t work. Giphy keeps it as a gif, so it works.

#24

I’m sure giphy works too, and may even be better, but imgur can work. Imgur by default shows a different extension in the URL to the image but if you just change that to GIF, it works.
