How to Add Stock Images or Animated GIFs to Your VidDay

Looking to add some extra flair to your VidDay? You can easily browse and add free stock images or animated GIFs right from your event page — no need to upload your own.

Here’s how:

1. Go to your event page.
   From your dashboard, click on the event you'd like to edit.

2. Click “Add Media.”
   You’ll find this button near the top of your event timeline.

3. Choose your media type.
   At the bottom of the Add Media window, you’ll see two options:

   • Animated GIFs

   • Stock Images

4. Browse or search.
   Use the search bar to find something specific, or scroll through the curated options for inspiration.

5. Select your favorites.
   You can add up to 10 items at a time — simply click on the ones you want, then confirm your selection.

6. Done!
   Your selected images or GIFs will now appear in your event timeline. You can drag them to a different spot, delete any you change your mind about, or add more at any time.

Tips for Using Animated GIFs

When you add an animated GIF, it’s treated like a short video clip. This means it might loop a few times by default. To make sure it fits smoothly into your montage:

• Double-click the GIF in your timeline to open the preview.

• Click Edit, then select the Trim tab.

• Adjust the length to control how long the GIF plays — for example, trimming it to just one loop.

Good to know:

• You can return to the libraries as often as you like.

• There’s no limit to how many media items you can add in total — just a 10-at-a-time limit for each selection.
