My group always uses Gifs in Roll20 chat (and videos too, if we use it through Google Hangouts). At the moment however, links are easily buried or ignored in the chat log.
I've often thought of setting the scene through film, or portraying character reactions through Gifs. I'd love the "Oomph" of seamless play on the "big screen" of the map, possibly through specific layers.
I'd also like a better way to see Gifs, Videos & Links my players have shared, instead of relying on the chat.
Webcam Chat is displayed through a small box at the bottom of the screen for each individual, and I'd like much the same for the Gif's, Video's and Links currently shared in the chat by each of my players. Why should the GM have all the fun? It would avoid clutter in the chat log and allow the GM to better see "a visual history". That could really let me get a handle of what's going on in my player's heads.
With some careful editing, this could bring clever use of art and film dangerously close to Telltale territory. I'd like to prepare chains of Gifs, art and videos to deploy according to my game plan, a bit like a flexible conversation tree.
