Time to get into this one, apparently.

When somebody comes up with a joke product that would actually work. That’s always cool.
My fortunate art accident.
I was making an animated gif for my Patreon banner (we’re past the proof-of-concept stage, and now I’m just tweaking it), and this popped up at one point of the process. I thought Affinity Photo could handle a gif, and it turns out that it cannot:

My adventures in gif.
I have spent the afternoon and evening trying and failing to figure out how to make a gif for my Patreon front banner*. I am either old, or this is harder than it looks. Or I am old, and this is harder than it looks. That’s always a possibility.
