Snippets please support gif and image~! So I can input image emoji by snippets.

 

In China, It's popular to send emoji while chatting online, if alfred snippet support image and gif, it will earn many Chinese user!!

 

 

example:

 

While input "!jump", I hope it become flowing gif

@Beiling With a little search in the Forum i found this again: http://joelcalifa.com/blog/alfred-emoji-snippet-pack/

Image is not needed, emojis are based on unicode.

I added the example in post.

Didn’t know you did, therefore i thought you meant emoji's that are unicode based.

So yeah natively Alfred doesn’t have support for images. Would be nice to see

@Beiling, it would be great to have this feature directly possible in the standard Alfred Snippets section, but if you don't mind creating Workflows for your snippets, look in my attached post to have a look at a way to paste image from Alfred. You will have an example to set a snippet and to use it directly from a Hotkey. Just duplicate the objects to create another snippet and make sure to replace "/path/to/your/image" in the Run Script with the path to your actual image and you should be good to go.

Sounds a good though, just a little inconvenient for user to add new gif and preview gif list while choosing,

 

so such feature really needs official support, and looking forward to official support of alfred ~!
