Is there a way to add a gif to a Markdown file?

Question

I want to add this gif to a GitHub flavored markdown file. If it can\'t be done in GitHub, is it possible to do it in another version of markdown?

Answer 1

From the Markdown Cheatsheet:

You can add it to your repo and reference it with an image tag:

Inline-style: 
![alt text](https://github.com/adam-p/markdown-here/raw/master/src/common/images/icon48.png "Logo Title Text 1")

Reference-style: 
![alt text][logo]

[logo]: https://github.com/adam-p/markdown-here/raw/master/src/common/images/icon48.png "Logo Title Text 2"

Inline-style:

Alternatively you can use the url directly:
