I know this is the wrong section, but a lot of people are asking this, and they ask here first. so it would be nice if you could sticky this maybe?

1. Save your pivot
2. now save it as a .gif, by clicking the drop down bar, under where you type in the name of it.
3. A simple box will pop up. for best results, uncheck merge. for frame delay, put 6, and shrink frame do 2.
4. Now, go to www.imgur.com and upload your .gif
5. Now right click it, and select "Copy Image URL"
6. Paste the link here, in between Image



For Pivot 3 Users who can't find the Frame Delay and Shrink option:

Quote from Zed
Frame delay and shrink frame are the pivot 2.2.5 options. Pivot 3 didn't exist when this thread was made. I don't think Pivot 3 has the option to change the frame rate so the only thing you need to worry about is the resize, which will depend on how big you made the canvas when you were animating. If you used the default size canvas you'll want to set resize to 50%. Uncheck merge, if merge is checked. "Merge" merges together identical frames if they're next to each other, so at best it does nothing and at worst it messes up your timing.

You shouldn't need to do anything else. If it still doesn't work you might accidentally be saving it as individual images or something.

5. copy the direct link to image bar, and theres the link to your animation.
6. If you want it to show your animation without having to click a link, click this button:Image and paste the link in.

Just click the image button, it shall appear a popup asking for the URL of the image, paste the URL there.

Or, if you have the whole code, just paste it on a post.

BTW, your name is racist as hell, I recomend you to make another account with a more generic name before mods or admins catch you.

Its the direct link code. Or if you mean the Icon its the Picture of the two mountains and the sun. Or just type "[IMG]" twice at each end of the link.
