Is it possible to add animated gif files to posts? I have tried [img] [/img] but it doesn't work. I've also tried to upload a gif file using the URL option, but that fails too.

9767 is the attachment id number. What you have to do is use the advanced post interface (not quick reply). Then, scroll to where you can upload an attachment from your hard drive. By default, the attachment will be included at the bottom of your post. However, if you want the attachment to be included inline anywhere within your post, then use the attach bbcode to specify its location based on the attachment # it was assigned when it was uploaded.
