aight, will keep that in mind!
for the new one im thinking of adding more than just custom text, but rather a custom added drawing :3 and i think 10-15 sec is definetly do able (unlike this which originally is around 20-30sec i think?)

yeah that's why it's best to just save them in full quality. you'll end up with 10-20MB or so, but you can easily reduce that afterwards. important is only that the artwork is not longer than 10-15 seconds, or it will be tooooo huge

oh wow thats nice. using photoshop to try optimize your gif is very painful. gotta sacrifice lots of quality for the sake of the size xD

you're welcome, if you need any help you can always ask. it's quite hard to get everything perfect, i can speak from experience.

and ezgif is nice if you want to optimize stuff, because it reduces the filesize more than photoshop does, so you can actually add longer animations without hittin steams upload size limit.

for example my current artwork was ~12MB after photoshop, but with optimizing on ez gifs it's only about 2 MB

Yup could agree. this is the first time i try to put things together and yeah the flicker is a bit much. i wanna make a new one thats more calm or at least easy to watch. Still looking for the right bg tho xD

and thx for the link, will check them out for future use

hmm i like the idea but it's flickering a lot... you could try to save it in full quality and then upload and play around with transparency or lossy at https://ezgif.com/optimize
