Help Trying to link large GIF ....

So I'm making a time lapse of Crescent pond to 'hopefully' watch it rise until it hits the overflow.... The issue is the GIF image that contains the ever increasing daily timelapse images is about to overrun TOO's Single Image 10mb limit. I've been successful posting the "linked" gif to a image hosting service on other BB type forum. (PondBoss) so I've been trying to figure out how to link the large gif to display on TOO?

Links:
Viewer Links
Direct Links
Tried the above with in-line code - insert image link, insert media link,

HTML Codes
HTML Image
<img src="https://i.ibb.co/TTxvnVY/output-zy-MX9b.gif" alt="output-zy-MX9b" border="0">
HTML Fill Linked
<a href="https://ibb.co/261nLDW"><img src="https://i.ibb.co/TTxvnVY/output-zy-MX9b.gif" alt="output-zy-MX9b" border="0"></a>
Tried the above with in-line code - insert image link, insert media link,

BBCodes
BBCode Full

BBCode Full Linked

Tried the above with in-line code - insert image link, insert media link

Interestingly - When I'm in Edit Mode the BBCode Links show the links working - when I hit Save they show broken...

Appreciate your help steve. I did not have time to look at it much today. 👍

No problem, Im happy to help on the few occasions Im able. :) I don't know if hosting at imgur is a solution for him....its free, so there's that. Still, the gif should have linked as an image. Very weird that it broke.

Thx bud! I'll go check thier site - (imgur) some of the "Gif-creater" sites have a limit on the / number as well - I'm hopeful and appreciative for your help.


Still gotta wonder why the ibb cross link didn't work/post when it works in the Editor of this site...
