Gif on hover on index pages

Hi, been trying to get this to work for a couple of hours now.

I'm using the Avenue template to display my portfolio and it has a quite nice hover effect built in (it changes the opacity of the image). However, I would much rather to have a .gif play instead of that effect.

I have managed to get this to work on separate pages with video and image blocks, but I really can't get this to work as all the images are presented on an index page. So to even find the right ID on an index page seems like a struggle, all the Chrome "Squarespace ID finder" gives me is the collection ID. I've also ventured into the actual code to see anything there, and there I found both a specific "collectionid" plus a specific "gallery-block" id for one of my images. But when trying to apply a code such as this one (that worked for an image block on a separate page), I can't get it to work for the images on my index page.

Very much appreciate some help on this. The website is https://www.henrikhedin.com/

Thanks.

Not necessarily show overlay, but replace with gif and title would be nice.

 

(This code for first, second items. Replace Pixabay with gif urls)

Add to Design > Custom CSS

a.project[href="/swedish-police-2021/"]:hover img {
    content: url(https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2020/12/23/21/21/macarons-5856039_1280.jpg);
}
a.project[href="/interflora/"]:hover img {
    content: url(https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2023/01/10/00/17/italy-7708552_1280.jpg);
}

Use this CSS

a.grid-item[href="/work/feature-film-meisies-wat-fluit"]:hover img {
    content: url(https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2020/12/23/21/21/macarons-5856039_1280.jpg);
}
a.grid-item[href="/work/nissan-magnite"]:hover img {

Thanks you very much Tuan! It worked perfect!

I have one more question, is there a way to add a quick fade transition before AND after the image hover? 

I really appreciate it!

Hi,

This will require different code. Can you remove temporarily the code I sent? I can test code again easier
