User reviews
Ulises Himely:
Is there any way to make "do not loop" the default condition with the option to check "loop" on individual animated GIFs to make them active?
Almost 5.
You can stop loop on individual animated GIFS, but others on the website continue in motion.
I'm looking for an add-on which will freeze ALL moving gifs on a website with an option to click on individual
frozen gifs to bring them back to motion.
Animations and flashing lights don't bother me, but some people on a forum were having issues with a theme so I wondered what could be done. THIS REALLY WORKS, try it!
