ugh. I hate when I have a project that's like 90% done but the remaining 10% is mostly just perfectionist bullshit that no one but me will care about

NO MOM, I CAN'T COME TO DINNER, I HAVE TO MANUALLY RE-ROTOSCOPE 12 FRAMES OF THIS GIF SO THAT THE CIRCLES WILL BE CORRECTLY ALIASED

so I'm editing some anti-aliased red circles to be aliased black circles, right? I figured I could just do a search on the less-than-red shades, and replace them with the background color. that'll get me a pixely edge, right?

surely in the year of our gourd 2025, image editing programs can draw accurate circles? RIGHT?

okay may be the ratio is off, but they're symmetrical right?around at least on axis? right?

@foone Only if they're properly centered on a pixel. Subpixels are a bitch! :)

@phoenixgee oh god, I bet that's the issue, or part of the issue. they are antialiased and centered on a subpixel

the extra annoying thing is that I only noticed this issue after doing half the edits. so now I gotta go back and double-check already finished frames to fix the pixelation

maybe I should write some kind of tool to dynamically lower the image color count to 3 and alert if there's any images that can fit that palette. that'd indicate some minor color issue in this GIF

uh oh! 11th hour technical issue: 1. I have two GIFs I need to concatenate2. the final image must be <10mb3. I can't resize the first image.the problem is that I have a usual way to make GIFs smaller: my program mov2gif. but it works by resizing the GIF until it fits, and I can't concatenate two GIFs together if they're at different resolutions!

ugh. the annoying thing is that I'm making a GIF that's going to be displayed by being converted to an mp4/webm/whatever. and they often don't like it when you do perfectly legal GIF things like changing the framerate mid-file

I wonder what the compression savings would be if I halved the resolution and then doubled it back. There's now half as many pixel-changes to encode per line! that should save some space, right?it might not look terrible. my resolution is already at "potato", and half of potato is still potato

I mean, not a real pull up. I don't want to add interlacing. eww. like, drop every 3rd frame, then for every two frames, duplicate one of them. So instead of frames: ABCDEFGHIyou display: ABBDEEGHH. So it's still 33⅓ FPS, but you only encode 2/3rds of the frames. Would this look terrible? Maybe.

although I guess the easiest and smoothest option would be to drop to 10 FPS. just encode AAAADDDGGG

okay no, I looked at the wrong file. That was only for the 10 FPS version.but hey, the 10FPS version is fine, I can keep the color count relatively high, and I'm in at 5.6 of god's own megabytes.

probably the quality would be a little higher if I did the 2/3rds framerate (22.%) thing and it might even be under 10mb still... but I'm not gonna try. also I was wrong, this isn't 10(effective)FPS, it's 11.11 repeating

okay it's done enough to release.(Don't ask me what the effective framerate on this one is. I think it might be 3/5ths of 33⅓?)Based on an original animation by mx-m29: https://www.tumblr.com/mx-m29/795040483619569664/just-a-normal-juggling-gif-nothing-weird-about-it
