The actual switching of the images is extremely easy with Divi’s background hover options. Then we’ll go over how to implement those background images into a blurb so that they switch on hover. We’ll start by going over how to create a screenshot and GIF using Snagit (a screen capture software). In this tutorial, I’m going to show you how to create a blurb that switches a background (still) image with an animated GIF on hover.
But, instead of showing that GIF initially, you may want to show a still screenshot of that function that is replaced with an animated version (or GIF) on hover. For example, if you are promoting the features of a particular software product, an animated GIF can help illustrate aspects of the products functionality (we do this for the products here at Elegant Themes). Switching a background image with an animated GIF on hover can be a great way to bring life to your content while also providing a cool illustration for products or services.
