If you see your gif playing once you post, try to use a smaller thumbnail and if that does not work use a different approved host.

    big problem with the search function:

    today i started a search for a watch4beauty pic set with name "sandstorm",giving sandstorm in the search brings one result,but not that special set.

    http://forum.phun.org/showthread.php?t=104238&highlight=sandstorm

    but looking at this post you see "sandstorm" is allready posted by river here,

    http://forum.phun.org/showthread.php?t=101077,with correct name and anything else.

    so why does the search dont show me the right result.thats a very bad thing in my opinion.

    i think the search only looks up in the post itself,not in the title,even if you choose it in the advanced search.

    any ideas?????

    and at least would it be nice to change the waiting time between 2searches from 60sec. to 30sec.

    That is because the word sandstorm is attached by the " in front and behind the word therefore changing it. The search function can only pick up words that is identical in spelling. when the title looks like "sandstorm" it is therefore a new word.
