    Hi Armin,

    I have a few animated gifs on my site and it seems that there is a little bug with Safari. When I open the site everything starts playing as it should. But once I scroll down the gifs that were out of sight and come into the visible area are not playing. When I scroll back to the gifs that were playing before, they stopped as well. When I put the mouse on any link or mouse-over button they start playing again. That only seems to happen in Safari on Mac. Firefox and Chrome work just fine.
    Here's a link: http://roelkamps.com/iron_wolf_rome_ep/

    Thanks a lot!

    Roel

          Ok, just found out why it doesn't work. Please put that css into "lay options" -> "custom css“ -> "css for desktop"

          .col img{transform: none; -webkit-transform:none;}
          

          will be fixed with the next update!

            Thanks a lot Armin! Works perfectly.

            @banana, as Armin said. I inserted gifs the exact same way how I inserted jpegs or pngs. You won't see them in motion in your project editor though. There they appear as still-images. But once you publish your project site you will see them.

              I also code custom websites or custom Lay features.
              💿 Email me here: 💿
              info@laytheme.com

              Before you post:
              1. When using a WordPress Cache plugin, disable it or clear your cache.
              2. Update Lay Theme and all Lay Theme Addons
              3. Disable all Plugins
              4. Go to Lay Options → Custom CSS & HTML, click "Turn Off All Custom Code", click "Save Changes"

              This often solves issues you might run into

              When you post:
              1. Post a link to where the problem is
              2. Does the problem happen on Chrome, Firefox, Safari or iPhone or Android?
              3. If the problem is difficult to explain, post screenshots / link to a video to explain it
