Title: Is there any way to include an audio file in a post?
Post by: SpaceGhost on Fri, 27 March 2015, 16:40:14

...or is that just not possible, forbidden by forum rules, etc.?

you can attach files

also I've seen folks use soundcloud for linking audio

Can you point me to a post that has a sound file attached? I can't figure out exactly how to do it. I would like to show a small button or something that when clicked plays the file (it's a very short file, only about 200K in size)

sometimes people post these annoying gifs/pics that play looped music automatically, but I have no idea how they work. I'm pretty sure it's internet magic. Also they are super annoying.

hmmm...can't seem to do this, but I'm no programmer. It needs to be easier.
