/r/reverseanimalrescue
A subreddit dedicated to reversing videos to make it look like animals/people in them are being put into dangerous situations.
You can use these links to make youtube videos into gifs:
http://makeagif.com/youtube-to-gif
(Longer youtube videos take longer to process!)
The recommended way to reverse a GIF is to use the gif reversing bot in the request thread. However, there are various sites that allow gif/video reversing. For example, http://gifgifs.com/reverser/ or http://ezgif.com/reverse (File size limit of 20Mb).
PLEASE DO NOT HOST DIRECTLY FROM GIFGIFS OR EZGIFS
Please host from either Imgur, Gfycat or Reddit's built in video hosting.
RULES
Content must be a GIF/Video - Content submitted here needs to be in gif or video form and of animal/human rescues that have been reversed.
The obvious ones:
a. Don't be an asshole in general
b. No witch hunting
c. No vote brigading/self promotion
No real animal cruelty - We DO NOT accept real animal cruelty, the content has to be reversed rescues not animals actually being hurt/abused
Keep comments on topic - This is a fun subreddit, not a political one. Any political, anti-cop, or generally contentious comments will likely be removed due to their tendency to start arguments.
No reposts from within the last month - DO NOT repost any content from this subreddit that was posted here within the last month or is one of the top 20 posts on this subreddit, it will be removed.
Use NSFW tag when necessary - Please use the NSFW tag where necessary, anything NSFW on this subreddit may go under scrutiny by mods to make sure it is not overly gory/weird.
Stick to preferred hosting sites - Please stick to the preferred sites for submissions, we will accept other sites as long as they are not blog sites/spam or ad filled sites. Gfycat, Imgur and Reddit's built in image hosting are acceptable.
No randomly capitalised titles - RaNdoMLY cAPitaLiSeD TiTLEs LikE tHiS are obnoxious and will be removed.
(Optional) Please mark reposts - Please mark reposts from other subreddits, either by crossposting, or with (x-post r/[Insert subreddit here])
Keep requests to the request thread - There (should) always be a request thread stickied to the top of the subreddit, please post any requests you have here - request posts will be removed, so please make the request in the appropriate thread.
Original video must contain a rescue - The original video that a reversed one is made from MUST contain a rescue of some kind. For example, a predator catching some form of prey does not count as a rescue. While reversed it does indeed show the animal being "rescued", this makes it the wrong way around for the subreddit - the whole point of this subreddit is to turn the rescue into the animal being put into "danger".

Hi there,
Based on the feedback from the post I made earlier in the week asking what the community thinks about the flair system, I've decided to update the flairs to be "ironic" ones that emphasise the nature of people being tricked by the subreddit.
So now the flairs are these options:
Have retagged a few of the current posts that are on hot to show examples, when making posts these are now the flair options.
Please feel free to make suggestions for more flairs along these lines in the comments here and I'll happily add them - I only have enough brain cells to come up with a handful after all. Also if you think the colours are stupid then say so as well, happy to change them.
Also: If it turns out people really don't like this idea I'm open to reverse it (ha) and return to the old flairs as well.
Hi there, it's your tyrannical overlord here with a brilliant idea...
I've been thinking about the subreddit's flairs and feel like it would be much more interesting to have them play into the "trick" aspect of the subreddit where people get confused and think the videos aren't reversed.
So the flairs instead of describing the animal involved would be things like "Disturbing", "Horrific", "Evil", "Not reversed" and "Real" (And any others, feel free to suggest your ideas in the comments for trick/ironic flairs if you like the idea).
Maybe this is a terrible idea, hence why I want to put this to a community vote and hear your thoughts rather than just doing it. One negative is I know for a fact that it would result in more reports as some people would fall for it. So kind of a good thing I've recently hired some new slaves valuable employees for the mod team, eh?
Anyway, vote below in this totally not biased poll:
