GIFs are old news
When was the first WEBM
Liam Murphy
Isn't the WEBM some modern Google creation when they were looking for a compromise between h264 and the open source alternative? When HTML5 was about to be a big thing and Flash was dying because Steve Jobs killed it
Ryder James
kind of sad how gifmaking has become a lost art
Nathan Richardson
it's cute
Christopher Young
To a deprecated format, that only keeps living because of its broad support.

Throw in a scale and fps filter as well to control the file size and you're done.

i've never heard of anyone calling it 'goo' until this thread right here, because it doesn't make any fucking sense and whoever initially posted it is just lying. nobody calls it that
Eli Campbell
some people call the FBII foo

>On June 15, 1987, Trevor and his team, which included inventor Steve Wilhite, released an enhanced version of the GIF called 87a. The new format allowed people to create compressed animations using timed delays.
Nicholas Adams
a few years later it was replaced by 89a
David Walker
yeah, but today is the 28th of may.
Christopher Sanders
I'm guessing they're celebrating the DVD logo hitting the corner just right? Don't remember this episode

>the DVD logo hitting the corner just right
If Adobe stops supporting Flash in 2020
what will happen to DVD players
DVD menu, scene selection
all that flash player no longer supported
all those DVD
it's a conspiracy to make us watch the commercials, and trailers on the DVD
no flash menu, means no skipping to the movie

Gif. With a soft G. Pronounced like jiff.
Ayden James
Actually there was a medieval machine that rotated a repeating image over and over. This was the worlds first gif. And a King had this technology before anyone else!
Josiah Wright
You're actually wrong, it's an AI generated text. Nobody's lying.
Blake Young
That's not true. It costs you billions to deny people what they're addicted to when you used to sell it. It also costs you billions to not push morals that you'll be sued if you don't push.

Remember it's pronounced jiff like the creator intended
