animated server icon

[dcsan]

I changed server icon to this now if we had a two frame gif it would be more memorable maybe between that and BoPo ? or a zoom into the owl...

[intellikat]

How to do that? A square framed GIF with circular images that will be cropped down when you select it for the icon?

[intellikat]

Does it need to be two frames only?

[dcsan]

no it can be as many frames

The max file size I've heard for the server icon is 8 MB.

they recommend 512x512 but i think smaller but more animation would be better.

something with lots of contrast or cool disc that rotates on the Y axis?

cute!

[dcsan]

hmm doesn't seem to be showing up

[dcsan]

I was also thinking we can do

Bo PO

for a logo later. like the NY

LO VE

would fit in circle a bit better.

[dcsan]

is there anything odd about the GIF? it works for me everywhere else. hmm.

works in settings screen but not in discord itself... hmm.

btw it's antialiased to white which looks a bit janky on dark mode

I can fix the antialiasing. Does discord limit the file size and then just make it static if exceeded? Can make bopo love

Does asylum-dev need a new icon? What boys need icons?

Apparently I can't fix the AA when making GIFs in PS. But I added a matching blue background, which should just disaappear when cropped as a circular icon. If the GIF doesn't play in Discord it might be related to the file size.

nah, thats just for development /testing

full bleed background looks good. it will crop itself

[dcsan]

it works now. as a point, it would be good to have zero pause on any frame currently when you rollover the loog you have to wait a few moments for anything to happen some other server logos animate instantly, so even a mouse over attracts the eye.

one seems to work a lot better. very few server logos are animated tho, so this is a differentiator

[intellikat]

use this

[dcsan]

yeah! that works much better, instant gratification on rollover...
