Eh... It really is easier just to use gimp rather than jump through loop holes.

Props to you though. Reviving this subject made me find this website https://ezgif.com/resize so I can make my tiger eye reanimated. The first site only makes them jpg output.

orwell knows.

hm i wonder if there's something cryptic in the name of The Orville...


"Orwell. The name Orwell is a boy's name meaning "the branch of the river"."
"Orville as a boys' name is pronounced OR-vil. It is of Old French origin, and the meaning of Orville is "gold town""

hmm

"Etymology
From Middle English or, oor, blend of Old English ōra (“ore, unwrought metal”) and ār (“brass, copper, bronze”), the first a derivate of ear (“earth”),"

it makes sense actually, branch of the river- an ore well. because that's where ore gets washed to from the mountain.
ore-ville = ore-town..

ore... something precious, and unrefined... yeah i get it.

from stargate:

TONANE
These ways are just as wasteful and destructive as the others.
HAMMOND
That's only the first part of the process, Tonane. Later, we restore the land and replant the trees. You haven't seen those images yet.
TONANE
I'm convinced that our way is best.
O'NEILL
Your way meaning…your spirits ask the mountain to send the stuff…to you down the river?
TONANE
(smiling)
Yes, Jack. It's the best way…and the only way we will…allow you to take the ke.
HAMMOND
I see. Perhaps, uh, Dr. Jackson would show you the rest of our facility? I'm sure you'll find it interesting.
DANIEL
(surprised by the request)
Uh…yes…I-I'd also like to show you images of your ancestors.
TONANE
Ancestors?
DANIEL
Oh, yeah, yeah. This may come as a bit of a shock, but we believe that your great-great-great- great-great-great-great grandfather may have actually come from here.
TONANE
From here?
DANIEL
Um…I'll show you.
[Tonane leaves the briefing room with Daniel. No one else moves.]

O'NEILL
Well…his mind's made up.
HAMMOND
That's unfortunate.
CONNER
They are offering to share the Trinium, sir.
HAMMOND
Small deposits, washed down from the mountain over thousands of years. That may be enough Trinium to meet the needs of Tonane's tribe, but not enough for any practical application. Therefore, I have been ordered to consider other initiatives.

"The meaning of Oneil is "Descendant of Niall". Its origin is "English variant of the Gaelic/Celic and Irish name O'Neill". This name is mostly being used as a boys name."

"Niall is a male given name of Irish origin. The original meaning of the name is unknown,[1] but popular modern sources have suggested that it means "champion""

wow these names are so well chosen..

Wraith form is dismounting them. Then they get a free tank + healing.

OSI must have had this issue too because they added nasty mechanics to combat it. The DF does that dreadhorn teleport you to himself thing. Really sucks.

fact still remains that no-one really cares about it happening in pve. like, so what if they get a tank and healing for free in pve?

it doesn't really make much difference to anything. why are you guys grasping at straws, nit picking, and desperately trying to make a pointless point?

you're being pedantic. the question is why?

and also... why is this the community now?

i mean seriously, this is pathetic.

post some fckin content, instead of just constantly bitching about stuff and trying to get one over on eachother. jesus christ...
