Update - Fixed. Thanks @[email protected] for pointing out the wayback machine!

I thought it would be fun to change the community icon and banner for April Fool's Day. But I forgot to save the old icon and banner and can't change them back.

Long story short, if you happen to have the old icon or banner cached or saved, please let me know. Otherwise, we might be having a new icon/banner contest.

Sincerely,

Jenny, Class-A Moron

I set them last night, and I'm not sure how long it takes for those to show up on other instances. I am curious though, so if you wouldn't mind dropping a comment if/when you notice the new icon/banner show up on your instances.

The winner of the pos-mens is @[email protected] for the banner and for creating the animated icon. Honorable mention to @[email protected] for the inspiration for the icon.

Looking to update the community icon and banner and want to see what you all come up with. As far as graphic arts go, I'm the worst so I want to crowdsource it out for best results. When the community was first set up I just kind of threw the current ones on there.

Best I can tell, the optimal sizes are 256x256 for the icon and 1320x240 for the banner. I've tried and failed to find a consistent answer on banner-sizing, but every answer has been different. Different apps also seem to display them differently, so I just picked a few that displayed well on different apps and averaged their sizes. 🤷🏻‍♀️ If you have a better suggestion, I'm all ears.

Animated icons/banners are fine, but they should be in the animated webp format. webm doesn't work well everywhere and GIFs are too large and also inconsistently supported. While webp doesn't animate in all apps, it still looks good as a static image unlike GIFs.
