How do I Upload GIF Files into the Gallery?

Pic-Time supports JPEG and GIF files as uploads to the gallery, including covers.

If you allow sharing and downloading in the gallery, these settings would apply to GIF files. The GIF files are not resized at the time of the upload, therefore the original size is available as both High-Res and Web-Size downloads. GIFs do not display in the store unless you add a custom product to the store or you sell downloads in the store. In this case, GIFs can be purchased from the store as downloads.

GIF files have the same file size limit as our JPEGs, which is 12000x12000pixels and 100MB for gallery photos, and 12000x12000pixels and 50MB for cover photos.

Pro Tip: For optimal viewing experience, we do not recommend GIFs larger than 1MB.
