The giphy public beta API key is embedded in this script and is subject to very frequent rate limiting. You can sign up for your own free Giphy API key, just be aware no special means in this script are used to "protect" the key.
Recommendation so you don't have to specify it each time: $PSDefaultParameterValues['Search-Giphy:ApiKey'] = 'yourapikey'

I don't understand how to stop the terminal GIF. It just keeps looping and subsequent invocations say that a GIF is already running.

Hanselman tweeted your script, so you're gonna blow up! This is an awesome idea and a good script. I think you should put it in a regular repo and let randos from the Internet send PRs until it's ready to publish on the PowerShell Gallery!

@AnthonyMastrean I plan to do a pull request to MSTerminalSettings module for it to live there. Stay tuned!

Just put this in my profile. Thanks for the work. Everything appears to work well in Core 7.3.1.

FYI, the public beta key ( e.g. dc6zaTOxFJmzC ) is BANNED so I had to make an account.

@mattcargile thanks, yeah I think they stopped allowing the public key so I'll probably have ot modify it to make the API key be required to be supplied.

Good deal, @JustinGrote . I just forked it and made some changes.

Just made it a Mandatory [securestring]. Then I removed the #Requires and moved the QUICKSTART to comment-based help Notes. Then I updated the example in the Notes

Neat, I wrote this years ago so I'm sure if I looked at again I'd be like "ugh, what was I thinking" and completely rewrite it :)

Heard that! 💯 👍
