GifsOnTumblr - Restore GIFs on Tumblr blogs and dashboard

The 'GifsOnTumblr' is a Chrome extension designed for users who prefer the use of GIFs over WebP on Tumblr.

does exactly what it says on the tin - i was going insane, the only reason i came back to tumblr is for gifsets so having them break constantly/not being able to save was just pointless.
