frame question: can images in a frame be set to autoplay? if not: can frames contain GIFs?

Contributing to /herocast. Bringing the world on-chain and /basedinberlin

wdym autoplay - images don't play anything

in frames v1 you can use gifs yes
in frames v2 it's a website so you can do a lot of things including gifs

with autoplay I mean autoplaying a carrousel/slideshow of images. thought alternatively I'd have to convert that slideshow into a gif somewhere before showing it in the frame

an image carousel is not a native format of the web nor frames, so youll have to convert to gif or do something else
