Gifs won't upload.
You can't do that in Scratch 3.0. I'm not sure if the Scratch Team's going to fix it, but I hope they do.

right click on the gif you want then click “save image as…” then it will go to your files and downloads then save it then go to “upload sprite or backdrop” then you have it!
hope that worked

In Scratch 3.0, gifs do not currently work. It is a feature that will be implemented in the future.

Hi, Gifs do not work in scratch . May be you can create many costumes in sprite and use this code
If this helps Follow will be appreciated
when green flag clicked
switch costume to [1 v]
forever
next costume
wait (.1) secs
end
If this helps Follow will be appreciated
set [Pizza v] to [Helper]

The Gif Probably won't Upload because it is way too big, or the file is way too large to upload. Or the file is glitchedI uploaded a very small gif and it worked, then I uploaded a very big gif but it just says importing forever

Why are we saying GIF's don't work? I was able to make a GIF image, then upload it to Scratch no problem.
What happens is the animation gets separated into multiple images/costumes in the editor. Then all you need to do is to use a ‘next costume’ block inside a forever loop.
Also, this original post was from 2019, just FYI.

If a GIF is too large, it won't upload. Simple as that.
