Convert all GIFS to tenor URLS in a JSON file #149

Closed I-question-this closed 3 years ago

Having the files saved locally is limiting. Some of the gifs are too large, but using the URL bypasses this. Also, all the gifs came from tenor anyways. If we come across a gif that isn't on tenor, we could just add it. URLs should be saved a JSON file that the util.py loads, or perhaps some other python file?

This JSON file should be in the format of a large list of a dict for each image that contains the following information:

Also, the large files should be removed. There is a complex process that allows one to remove large files permanently from Git repos. This will need to be researched, and completed.

I realized that the method of deleting images from history is...complicated...and prone to error. I thus don't think it's worth that much effort and risk. The images will remain in the history.
