How many times have you been showing something and the site is slow to load.

On the playhead is a button that says “GIF.” Click it. Choose video record rather than screenshot and record your using a digital tool. You will notice I am demonstrating above the dragging of the screen capture from Snagit into a Google doc with a GIF animation. Drag from the tray onto whatever platform you are using that allows you to add images. Below the screen capture is the tray of images.
