What is Giphy?
Bring the power of a GIF search engine anywhere on the web!

How Do You Use It?
Giphy Basics
Giphy Navigation
Drag and Drop
You can easily place GIFs or Stickers in your files by dragging and dropping the item directly into a compatible file!
Copy and Paste
You can also insert GIFs or Stickers directly into compatible files by right clicking and copying and pasting the item.
Note: This method flattens the image and loses the animations, which is the beauty of GIFs, so you may want to always drag and drop to insert!
