  • hiii everyone!
    I hope this is helpful & encourages you to submit your own GIFs! honestly I think the most confusing/mysterious part of the process is the timeline - but it ended up being much faster & smoother than I expected!
    in the meantime, you can still use your GIFs personally by copying and adding them as a sticker! I included how to do this in my video about making GIFs for IG stories, which you can find here: • how to make illustrate...

    here’s my profile in case you want to take a look: giphy.com/thegladdestthingshop
    one last thing that I forgot to mention in the video - when you tag your GIFs, make sure to add your name or a tag that’s specific to you so your insta friends can easily find & use your stickers :) I used “gladdest” for mine!
    let me know if you have any questions and I’ll do my best to help! can’t wait to see & use your GIFs in my insta stories!!
    ♥ mac
    p.s. sorry if the “jiff”/“jiffy” pronunciation drives you crazy, lol - but I looked it up and the ~creator of the GIF~ said that’s how you pronounce it!! so I’m sticking with it ;)

    Hi! I have watched both of your gif videos, they’re great! I am having trouble uploading from Procreate to GIPHY. On procreate, I uncheck the background and then export as the animated gif with the transparent background option clicked on. Once on the GIPHY app, it adds a black background to my gifs. Thank you for your help!

      @TheCreativeStudio1 4 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      I encountered the same issue. I followed the requirements and I received a response that my application was "ineligible". I wonder why that is. I'm wondering if you have to have a large following? Yet - I've seen some smaller artist you tubers still get verified.....I did email them to see if they could further elaborate and offer suggestions and an opportunity to resubmit. It's sad but I guess possibly they want people to follow on the Giphy site to be able to use the content vs. just being able to search through the instagram interface? Who knows, kind of frustrated about it, but understand it's their decisions. Just would like more clarity on reasoning behind ineligibility. I'll keep ya'll posted on if I get a reply.

    • @TheCreativeStudio1
      @TheCreativeStudio1 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      I received a response from GIPHY - they stated that their artist directory is limited which is why they they won’t approve everyone...I’m assuming it’s based on what they’re looking for...but keep in mind you don’t need approval to get your gif into your instastory __ it’s really only f you want your artwork found. Which I’m sure most of us artists would like that.
