Animated LJ Icons

[the_fantastic_ms_fox]

Anyone out there want an animated LJ icon? I want to teach myself this function of GNU imaging. Tell me what you want. (the attached image is a first-shot attempt). I also have morpher, if you want one thing to turn into another or something.

Yes. and if you're feeling fancy, I would love a star morphing into something flower-like, with the words "I woke up star-shaped"

Would you like it to be iconic or photorealistic? What colours? Would you like something fast or slow?

[estrellada.livejournal.com]

photorealistic, preferable, and something slow. think 'bloom'/

I'd like a morphed icon for my livejournal. Specifically, I'd like it to be the sigil of the Order of Enlightenment transforming into the sigil of the Tiamahu and back. Order's sigil is an idealized candle flame above a pyramid (as if the pyramid were a candle), whereas the Tiamahu have a spiral.

The pyramid would be gold, and deepen into a purplish-green when it becomes the spiral. No particular movement in mind nor any idea for how long it should take. I'll rely on your judgement for that.

Here you go. Right-click on it and save. Then go to manage - userpics in the bar above. Sorry that the edges are so trimmed: the original was 140% of the maximum LJ file size.

Very very cool. I love how serpentine the image looks as it shifts from the pyramid to the spiral, considering how large a role snake imagery plays in "Spiritus Mundi." Thank you very much.
