I’ve been wondering for a pretty long time how animated gifs might work e.g. how they are made, and I found out today! I usually need a reason to work such things out, and I had a good one: making banners for Lily Lux and the idea that a waving lucky cat and twinkling matryoshka dolls would be even nicer than just showing their pictures.

After all, making the tiny animations was much easier than expected, plus a lot of fun. You just have to be careful not to get hynotized… and now you can add our banners to your own blog, if you like them. Just click the images.
