Once I steal a gif from somewhere, I'll put it in Gimp to resize and brighten them up so they're not so dark:
- resize/crop to 128x128px (can do this at the end too)
- hide all but the bottom layer, which is the first frame
- apply a curve filter to increase the contrast so you can make out the contents when it's small
- unhide all of the layers and re-apply the curve filter to all of the layers (ctrl-f I think)
- export as an animated gif
- upload to nostr.build and then add the link to emojito
There was one case where I had to retrack one guy's face into the frame because the camera was moving too much. It's the one of the guy saying What the Fuck and shaking his head.
