How to Use a GIF for Chatroulette
Chat Roulette is a video and microphone website where you use your webcam to connect with random strangers for the purpose of live chatting. If you want to use one static picture, such as a GIF file, as your webcam image instead of actually using a live video feed for yourself, you can do so using a program that helps you accomplish this. Using a static picture can be a good option if you don't have a webcam.
