Since joining Steemit, I've gotten a bit of a reputation...

No, no - not in that way! Everyone knows I'm an...

I mean, a reputation as a gif maker, or gif master (although gif mistress could be fun...LOL).

And @jaynie, who is wicked smart, said it so it must true, right? π

Oh, and @zord189 made me feel like royalty...

Earlier today, I caught wind that @meno talked me up last night in the @helpie chat and said (paraphrasing a bit) that one of the things he loves about me is that I "leave really funny gifs" everywhere.

At any rate, earlier today I caught an AMAZING post called, Love On A Wave by @amymya (seriously, go read it now - I'll wait. Okay, you're back? Wasn't that totally amazeballs? Alrighty, to continue...), and noticed two simple-yet-awesome gif-ified photos amongst the other amazing pictures. I then realized I've never giffed any of my own photos.
I figured it was high time to remedy that. After all...

Instead of searching through the random, short videos I've taken over the years, I decided to be lazy and do something quick to animate a version of something I'd already put together.
So, here is the gif version of a graphic I created for a Witchy Wednesday post back in October 2017 on my WP blog. The photo (a composite) is mine, and the quote is one of my favorites.
βI want to be magic.
I want to touch the heart
of the world and make it smile.
I want to be a friend of elves and
live in a tree. Or under a hill.
I want to marry a moonbeam
and hear the stars sing.
I donβt want to pretend
at magic anymore.
I want to be magic.β

This post definitely kept me chuckling through the entire read. I really, really need to learn more about gifs.( I want to be cool like you). Oh, can that quote become one of my favorite quotes as well?
No worries, @papacrusher - gifs are wicked easy to do. I do most of mine on the Giphy site, using the create feature. And it most definitely can be your favorite quote too!
It is a well earned reputation. You are the gif(t) that keeps giving.
