Transformers animated cartoon button.

This is more or less, a test, to learn how to use a gif.
I followed what Jcee mentioned months ago.
"Download a gif, rip, and delete the background. Expect roughness".

There are more low quality gifs, than high quality ones, out there.
Guess, because they were invented back in the 80s, when internet bandwidth was small.
This is from a low quality cartoon, animated gif.
It's the first one that showed up in search.
I used "Animated GIF Frame Extractor", then used "PixelFormer", to assemble the frames in a vertical column,
with one pixel line added to top.
That was the easy part.
The chore was manually getting rid of the noisy dithered background.

If you want to use it,
Keep button size under 120
Put in check for align to corner.



Oh well, I think I just wasted my time.
I just found out that someone else already removed the background on a similar gif, on internet.
Should have gone for a good quality moving Transformers logo instead.


EDIT: Replaced picture with gif made from my animated CSM button.
