FAQ
What content do I find on Pixabay?
Pixabay is free stock videos and free pictures or images. For videos, you will find short movies (Called films) usually below 60 sec. duration and with various themes. You also find animations in videos, these are short animation videos either made from photos, drawings, etc. In images, you find photos, illustrations, and vectors.
My Pixabay video is showing a striped image instead.
If Pixabay servers have trouble loading the thumbnail for the video in the editor, they return a placeholder image instead. Do not worry, the actual video will still play in the preview and also in your player, simply the thumbnail for the video did not load, and the thumbnail is only used in the editor.
