Enhancement: Add animated icons

Open thorst opened this issue 11 years ago • 6 comments

In the readme you mention http://factoryjoe.com/projects/emoticons, which includes the animated icons.

Is there any chance those could be added to this project?

I don't need them right now, if you want to add them, we can discuss how to do that.

really the only thing that needs done is to compile the gif, i looked at a photoshop tut, and read its possible on gimp.

I will try to create it myself, and if i do, ill make sure it gets back to you

you want to compile gif? no Idea what you mean.

  1. I would add /support/emoticons-animated.css
  2. mkdir /support/emoticons-animated
  3. put all the gifs into that folder and link them in the css file

by compile i meant that i would try to create one large animated gif, similar to the one large gif you have currently. This new gif would be comprised off all the individual animated gifs from that site. I would have them in the same position as the current gif, so that we could use the same css. Then by adding a class "emoticon-animated", it could overwrite the img source, but everything else would stay the same. Im assuming this is possible.

Im not sure if that would be a good idea, or if its better to have all the images separately.

I don't think its a good idea, you will be animating the whole time the whole thing, it is possibly not performant.

A better thing would be probably to get all images from the animated gifs to 1 big gif/png and animate it then via css.

But this is if you want to avoid lots of separate requests. If you don't load all the icons at once every time user renders the website, it probably doesn't matter.
