gif_field's Issues

Field Form Inputs

The field should have the following for best use:

1. A search field (text field)
2. A gif URL to save to db.
3. An element to display returned results in.
4. An element to show the current gif is one has been chosen.

API choices

Create a constant to work like an enum for populating the admin form with possible API source options and used to create the API call.
