1. Can anybody tell me what is the point of Groups in Oxwall when unlike Facebook you can't add any photo's or other media to it!
2. Why can't Oxwall display Gif files?

My OX is showing moving GIF's with no problems Mark and I can upload Images & video to Groups just fine.

I even use moving GIF's in the Gift plugin.

Any plugin which uses GD library or any other library for resizing images do not allow to use gif animations. Wolfy, where exactly do you have gif animations?

Mark, currently Oxwall does not support GIF animations.
