@Juxtaprelinger: @Juxtaprelinger finds old film clips in the Prelinger Archives and splices them together, according to themes: “horizons,” for instance, or “San Francisco.” The resulting GIFs fall somewhere between art and history. And that’s only the first three!
@AnimatedText: Graphic designer Catherine Frazier animates 3D, GeoCities-style text blocks on request. She’s done e-cards, mundane sayings, personal confessions … and an entire series on Pornhub comments.
@GIFs: There’s no apparent rhyme or reason to the aptly named @GIFs, which posts a very frequent assortment of pet and pop culture GIFs. For the full experience, you should also follow the partner account @GIFsinWords, which tweets bizarre, context-less descriptions of @GIFs’ material.
@EarthGIFs: Think @EarthPix, but in GIFs. This type of questionably sourced nature porn is not for everyone, but the account’s pretty popular thus far: It’s found 2,584 followers after only three tweets.
@SBNationGIF: SBNation’s two-year-old GIF account previously got around Twitter’s GIF ban by sourcing its material from Giphy and Vine. Presumably you’ll soon be able to see sports gems like this one in-line.
@Pinot: Pinot Ichwandardi is a prolific, and wildly popular, Vine animator who seems ready to turn his talents to Twitter. Since the site started displaying GIFs, he’s converted four of his most popular animations — including this really neat take on MC Escher’s loop.
@TKyleMac: T. Kyle MacMahon runs the (truly wonderful) blog Reality TV GIFs. We can only hope more of his work surfaces on his personal Twitter.
@MisterGIF: Mr. GIF is the long-running project of artists Mark Portillo and James McCain, who have made stunning animations for everyone from Nike, Evian and Coca-Cola to Anthony Bourdain. They have not, alas, tweeted any GIFs yet. But they did promise to soon!
