I want to see some gifs that are genuinely cool or pretty to look at

There are lots of silly, fun gifs, but it can really be an interesting platform for making short animation loops.

I know nullsleep has started doing some, I have a few, and I want to see more pretty and/or intersting gifs

A gray world of dread

Me too! I always liked the idea of animated gifs for pixel art, because they're so tied to the medium. For example, I'd love to see more animated cover art for net releases (as long as it's not flashing me blind).

Thanks, these are some really cool things, but i was more curious to see what sort of things the fine members of this forum in particular had done,
I've started doing a little bit, but it's mostly gif exports of clips i use in my visuals

delaware are sick just for the way they give interviews and their quotes.
