  2. Our gif only content threads have a rule where all thumbs must be posted as a static thumbnail that does not play. Currently imagebam made a change where they no longer produce static thumbs. Therefore, please do not use imagebam, or any host, that provides live playing gifs in those specific threads. If you see your gif playing once you post, try to use a smaller thumbnail and if that does not work use a different approved host.

    gim·crack (jmkrk)
    n.
    A cheap and showy object of little or no use; a gewgaw.
    adj.
    Cheap and tasteless; gaudy: "The shelves groan with an array of gimcrack gifts from fans: a stuffed piranha fish ... a ceramic ... bull, a papier-mâché replica of an Apollo moonwalker" (Harry F. Waters).

    That comes close, but then again what I personally consider gimcrack might be tasteful decoration for sb else.

    Do you even use that word?

    Something picayune, like a doodad.
    I've never had an occasion to use that word, no.

    that's describing it. The expression I was looking for is rather judgmental.
    In a way that it's "too much", like over-decorated...

    "gaudy trash", "shoddy design" or just "Kitsch" is what dict.cc suggests...
