Could Tumblr Please Explain What’s Going On With Asks?

Some friends and I run a Tumblr and have noticed a problem in answering “asks” – the site’s blog-specific inbox. For about a month now, we’ve noticed that you can’t upload more than one animated .gif in response to an Ask, and have had to do a “first” answer, then go back and re-open the Ask to add more images.

One co-admin reached out to Tumblr via several communications options (Tumblr, Twitter, email, etc) and hasn’t gotten any kind of response. All three of us are trying to work out if there’s something wrong with our blog, or if Tumblr has the strange idea that this is a feature, or if something else is going on.

Any Tumblr gurus out there who know how we can fix what’s going on? Is it something we did? And if not, does Tumblr have any plans to fix this glitch?
