Nice haul! These are always fantastic.

"Borkulator" is what I regret not naming my dog.

Yep, I remember reading the aquarium changing to a terrarium in the same article/book chapter too for that reason.

I've got a bit of source amnesia on this, but I remember I read about this in either an interview or maybe Fey's book??

The source said that the crinkly book was just really, really loud on the microphones, and they changed it to the giraffe. I forget why they didn't re-shoot the scene, but I'm imagining they left it in as a gag.

These are great, and I could see myself using quite a few of them.

@[email protected] any chance of getting some of these added to the instance as custom emojis? I noticed you have several already, but these would be awesome if you could.

Specifically the Randy and D'Fwan ones

I think it does. Probably isn't too much of a stretch since 30 Rock isn't above a shout-out or ten. Just off the top of my head:

  • Aliens (Kenneth using a motion tracker on Tracy's lizard)
  • Star Wars (multiple)
  • Annie ("Say, where does a young prostitute get started in this town?")
  • The Andy Griffith Show (Floyd DeBarber)
  • St. Elsewhere (the finale)
  • The Jetsons (also the finale + how Tracy would have to get around like Rosie from the Jetsons if he lost a foot to die-ah-buh-dees)

It goes deeper. Look who played the teen witch and Liz's high school nemesis.

I'm not subscribed to a huge number of communities, but [email protected] has one. Seems to be the only other one in my list that does.

The icon is and appears to be animated webp like this one.

That worked. Thanks :)

When I was in college I'd go visit my parents every other weekend or so. I always brought the cat so she wasn't alone in the apartment all weekend. She would just crawl up on the little shelf under the rear windshield and nap the whole way.

Might have found a bug. In Tesseract the new icon shows up in Subscribed but in Favorites it still shows the old icon:

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.

The winner will get a pos-mens in the sidebar

So put down your meth, slip on your whites. Cause here in Real America™ it's tennis night.
