Classification is done by hand? So you find a gif you like and then add it to your db and do all the tagging and metadata yourself? Interesting. I feel like a script that scrapes Tumblr for gif posts and their associated tags would be a good approach to start automating things.

- yolesaber 10y agoFair enough. I'm inclined to believe that's how GIFy does it, because a lot of their gifs have the stuttering, sliced up kind of motion and compression so endemic to tumblr gifs
