Good advice, been growing Twitter/Tumblr accounts with GIF only and it's pretty efficient.
For anyone interested, have a look at this tool (http)blog(dot)bahraniapps(dot)com/gifcam/ , very nice to create gifs and avoid re-using/reposting always the same ones.
Also worth having a look at (http)www(dot)lcdf(dot)org/gifsicle/] to optimize GIF size, nice one to work on batches of files. The optimize command is very straightforward:
Code:
gifsicle -O2 orig-animation.gif -o new-animation.gif
