Step #3: For making this method easy, let's get the Facebook group's ID in which you are going to post animated pictures. To get the group ID, navigate to the Facebook group and analyse the URL of the group.

If the group ID looks like https://www.facebook.com/groups/123456789/ then 123456789 is the group ID.
In the other case, if a group name appears like https://www.facebook.com/groups/somename then, click on Notifications and right click Settings. Now, select Copy Link Address. Paste the URL somewhere in your favorite text editor like Notepad. At the end of the URL, you may find the group's ID.

&message=MESSAGE_HERE
&attachment=
{'media':
[{'type':'flash',
'swfsrc':'http://bit.ly/wupNWO',
'imgsrc':'ANIMATED_IMAGE_URL_HERE'}],
'caption':'++++++',
'description':'+++++++',
'properties':{'Via':{'text':'CryptLife',
'href':'https://www.facebook.com/CryptLife'}}}
&access_token=ACCESS_TOKEN
&target_id=GROUP_ID

Step #6: Replace MESSAGE_HERE with any message describing your animated picture. But your question may be, where to get animated picture's link? Your own animated pictures can't be made animated on Facebook. But you can use the animated picture's link that are already available on Facebook. Just go to

Find a best animated picture for your post. Right click the selected picture and Copy Link Address. The one which you copy now will be the ANIMATED_IMAGE_URL_HERE.

Step #8: Replace GROUP_ID with the one which you got from Step #3. If you leave this blank, then it will be posted on your timeline.

Step #9: After replacement, paste the code in your web browser's address bar and hit Enter.

After hitting Enter, it will display an XML report. Check the Facebook group whether your animated picture has been posted or not. If you see the post with animated picture you selected, you're done successfully. If you don't see, then you must have encountered an error in XML report.
