Vine’s sudden closure is leaving a lot of creators without home for their creations. While there are a lot of other social media sites out there, not all of them can work with the six-second clips Vine hosts. One that can take advantage of the shutdown is Giphy. The GIF-centric site has indeed created a tool to help Vine creators convert and transfer their content to Giphy. By simply signing up to Giphy, you gain access to the GIPHY Vine tool where all that’s needed is to input your Vine profile URL and let it do the rest. According to Android Headlines, full resolution and visual quality stays roughly the same. But like other GIF files, it would lose sound. Giphy wouldn’t say until when the tool will be available. Same goes for Twitter. They haven’t announced when they plan to shut down the site. But it’s better to cut your ties with Vine sooner instead of later.
