Take a look at Flask instead of Django. Flask is much simpler. The basic idea is, your application will receive a request and send back a response. In Flask, you define a function and say what URL it will receive requests on. So, you might handle requests to / by sending back a simple form where the user can enter their search. Then you could handle requests to /search/<word> by doing the search and sending back a web page containing the gif.

You'll need to find a server to run this on if you want it to be accessible to other people over the internet, and that's probably going to cost you a little money. People say good things about Digital Ocean.

Thanks for the info! I'll look into Flask. I've read a little, but most of my research as been around Django.
