A place where beautiful people gather to talk about how beautiful they are.
Help!
Can someone teach me how to imzy? Is there a walkthrough somewhere? I feel like I have to open any post that I'm interested in on a new tab in order to not lose my place on the feed. What are the tips and tricks? And what is the giphy thing?




I'm looking at you, The Suzzzzzzzzzzzzz
When did I become the expert? When it comes to technology I think chimpanzees have the edge over me. I don't know how to go into a topic and back out without losing my place so I a {cntrl} click and it pops up that topic in a new window, but that's as advanced as I get. The giphy thing....type an open bracket [ then type a / then type the work giphy then put a space then type a fancy open bracket { then type a word or a phrase then add a fancy closed bracket and then a regluar closed bracket and you should get something like this:
So basically type [/giphy] but then after the word giphy add a space and then fancy brackets surrounding the word or phrase you are looking for {dance your pants off} make sure you get both types of closing brackets on there. Try it and see if it works. You can preview it by click on the Aa button next to your name at the bottom of the comment box, that will bring up a tool bar at the top of the box, click on the eye ball tab and it will preview the image.
And for some reason the giphy function on here loves Just Bieber, sorry, I have no idea why.
Let's check it out then...
Haha cool! Thanks for the tips. I am on my phone this time and didn't see a way to preview it. But it worked anyway!
I picked you because I see you post and comment, and because you're hilarious and I like you. Thanks again!!
Not sure about on phones, I don't have the app yet...but YAY! You giphyed, well done.
When you want to open something from your feed, it's best to just open it in a new tab so you don't lose your place. I posted about this gripe recently and someone from imzy said they're working on a solution but in the meantime that's an okay workaround (if annoying to have to remember to do).
On Windows you can ctrl-click the link, on OSX you can cmd-click it, and on mobile devices you can just long-press on the link and select "open in new tab" or your local OS's equivalent. Or you can right-click (if so equipped) and select "open in new tab."
Giphy is a service which will present a hopefully appropriate image given the keyword or phrase you specify. (I have no idea how to actually invoke it on imzy though.)
It also supports a bunch of other stuff like #mashup and a few other things. You can poke around on their site and maybe that'll answer your questions, but usually it just raises more.
