I don't know how you folks make these but I'd like to request a spinning gif of the red box from Phantasy Star Online. Could be used for Diablo-likes and, well, PSO.

Sounds like fun, some of you guys are really good at this. I know just barely enough about photoshop animation to make simple ones:





I might take another crack if there are any topics that could use some more coverage, or any advice to improve this one.

e: Tried another one. With and without border. I took a stab at trying to get the triforce to shine but It was a bit too flashy, I like the subtlety of the waterfall.

I like that one :allears:. Maybe a variant with a spinning gear instead of a chocobo as well for grindy rpg's?

I did see the old one (and was inspired by it) but I think the text is a bit ugly. I thought It would be fun to try a new version with the codec sprites.

Too bad for me if people like the old one I guess.

I believe in a universe that doesn't care, and people that do.


Man I wish I knew anything about optimizing gifs. All the automated services I used can't do anything for this one.



It's a shame, because I think it's the best looking version of my concept.

Scoss

I cut it down to 16 colors and turned the dithering down a bit, so the tail streak is slightly less smooth. More could be done to shrink it or reclaim a little quality, but this at least gets it down to 8KB and looks acceptable I think.



Another random idea for Mario/Platformers:

you'd put a cassette tape (like a external hard drive, but for music) into a computey and tippity type some garbo into it and that's how games worked.

Hah, I made this yesterday and I thought it turned out maybe a bit lousy so I was hesitant to post it, but I'm tickled by how similar our idea was so why not.






Also tried a little gradient on the Mario one, I think it's maybe a bit sharper:

Definitely this one over the static variant. Maybe see if you can separate the lid of the chest as its own layer and get "LOOT" popping out from within the chest behind the gold pile?
