Re: How DOES the "no necroing" rule work, anyway?
Last image just doesn't have custom transparency.
It was a two second .gif that I asked cambiogris to make.
A forum version would have transparency, obviously.
Foa: It already does flash in the inverse colors, just only part of the image flashes. Which gets even better contrast.
The flashing on that image also works better; it can be made to happen less often but still be noticable.
Of course most people will just adblock it, but, hey.

Re: How DOES the "no necroing" rule work, anyway?
Got bored. Eight images with varying time delays, 4 apiece from the wide and narrow images I posted earlier. First frame delays are 100, 150, and 200 centiseconds. Second frame is from 15 to 20. They should all be properly transparent and quite ready for insertion into a webpage as well. Cough. Cough. EDIT: Scratch that on the transparency, not sure what happened. Also yes, I realize I double posted. Whatcha gonna do about it. Transparency test: Ah, there we go. Okay, just gotta be more careful next time. Pick an image and I'll upload it properly transparent.

Re: How DOES the "no necroing" rule work, anyway?
Does it really have to flash?
I mean, we want people to notice it, but people might overuse a giant distracting flashing button.

How about this? It's noticeable without drawing too much attention and give a sense of warning.

I like the red flashing one. Its noticeable, but not annoying

Re: How DOES the "no necroing" rule work, anyway?
It's been changed, by the way.
It looks a bit off to me, the spacing is way off, but if you can come up with better, let James know.
Flashiness is also a negative.

Re: How DOES the "no necroing" rule work, anyway?
And so after all of this discussion and ideas they just stretched it a little bit?
Edit: Nevermind, they changed it to the one that says R E P O R T

Re: How DOES the "no necroing" rule work, anyway?
I thought the change was good, noticeable and is clearer.
So I suppose it's all thanks to grif. Happy now? EDIT: (not mean-ness, I realize it sounded mean when I looked back on it)
