Title: El Hazard animated GIFs
Post by: Saucer on July 20, 2003, 11:12:11 pm
Well, I was just checking on my old AOL FTP index and it's still active! Even though I stopped paying them months ago (heh heh, suckers). I found a couple animated Ifurita GIFs I did quite awhile ago on my old G3 (pre-meltdown). You're welcome to add them to the site if you like.

And, while it's not El Hazard, I believe you mentioned before that one of your brothers is into Burn Up? Check out this billboard ^^; (http://members.aol.com/gransnoise/rio.jpg

And one more, getting back to animated GIFs. For you Baiko and Tamasabaro fans ^_^

Ah, excellent.  I had to turn your billboard into a link, sorry about that, but even at 1024x768 resolution over here there was massive scrollage required.  ;)

Make sure you hold on to any you want to keep yourself; I'm sure eventually AOL will dump your space.

These remind me lightly of like what could become banner ads...

Yup, I went through and saved everything I wanted. Funny thing is, my AOL account was being paid on my credit card that got stolen and canceled. And obviously, I never gave them my new one because I was going to cancel anyway. But the account is still active, even though I haven't paid them in awhile. ^^;

Anyway, I have something new for you. Don't ask me how these things happen, but Sunday nights are usually my most creative time. If I don't have plans, I just sit around all day watching anime, drinking coffee, take a nap, etc.... Then later in the evening, I'm often hit with divine inspiration. Hence, this little number I just whipped up.

You're welcome to add it to the site if you like. It's rather largish (1.2MB). In fact, if you do add it, could you tell me the URL so I can switch it in the body of this post? I have a feeling it's going to eat up my puny Earthlink bandwidth. ^^;

I suppose it would have been smaller if I'd done it as flash. Oh well, hope somebody finds it amusing. ^^;

Not bad! Not bad at all! If I saw that, I'd be here like a flash!  ;D

Wow.  Haven't seen an AYB gag in a while. :P

Can you do flash?  It certainly would be a better handler for this, yes.

I tried to recompress it myself; I could get it 400KB smaller, but it's still rather unacceptable for a GIF.  :P

Otherwise, it is good for amusement... I'll save a local copy, but I dunno if I want to use the bandwidth to host the mammoth, at least until a smaller, better configured version is available.  ;)

I don't know anything about Flash.

Well anway, I just did it for fun using a freeware program. I don't know anything about compressing GIFs. I still find AYB gags highly amusing.
