Animated Image for my homepage

hozho — Sun, 21 Sep 2025 10:53:45 GMT

How can I add an animated image to my home screen? So many professional sites have it to enhance the experience when displaying an image and the logo "appears". Why doesn't Square/Weebly have the option?

Hi @hozho

Thank you for your enquiry. Are you looking to add video footage or a animated GIF file?

Are you looking to use the Square Online platform?

Hi,

I'm not looking for a video because it has the play/volume buttons and is not just an animated image. For example, a static photo with the company logo appearing. Almost like powerpoint presentation with words or other images gliding on top. Not sure if you can, but this link is what I am talking about: Link example

I am using the Square Online platform/Weebly editor for my site.

Hey @hozho - that's something that isn't possible to do with Square right now. You can put in a feature request via the Ideate board though!

Something that could give you close (but not the same...) would be to create two header images, one plain and one with your logo/text on. Then have them as a slide show, so the page starts with a plain image and then the logo/text comes in. (This isn't going to be quite the same, as the one you linked to has several different objects moving independently).
