Where is that rule, it’s a new one on me? Not saying I don’t believe you, just want to see it (and anything else I might have missed related to picture posting). Because I’ve [posted](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/gina-carano-is-ignorant-af-but-cancel-culture-is-really-getting-ridiculous/932694/723) animated GIFs in BBQ threads, and no-one told me it was _verboten_.
