Case in point, the promo in The Compilation Gallery (addendum: well apparently someone cleaned it out but the point still stands). That one promo featuring Darwin and Gumball sort of appearing and then playing a song can easily be shown with the respective gif yet has like 7 pictures instead representing it.

The issue I feel we need to tackle is whether or not our standards for images/gifs aren't clear cut enough or if it's just a problem with certain users having repeat offenses. I don't want to play the blame game or anything but I feel it's mostly the latter. Case in point with the too many photo/gif problem: http://theamazingworldofgumball.wikia.com/index.php?title=The_Photo%2FGallery&diff=391224&oldid=385942 (Scroll to the bottom)

Rather than one lone gif, here we have multiple gifs that clutter up the gallery.

As for photos, how about an early part of The Knights' gallery? http://theamazingworldofgumball.wikia.com/wiki/The_Knights/Gallery

As you can see, we have a decent amount of photos of Penny--that have little to no difference. Almost like we're being shown the whole episode in photo form.

Gallery photos and gifs are supposed to capture the moments that stand out, not every single frame of a given episode.
