Ask HN: What GIF would you want on a shirt?

12 points by maximumcomfy 3y ago ↗ HN

I'm working on a lenticular printing shirt but am unsure what GIF I would use. It uses tiny prisms and supports 3-4 frames.

Two concepts: https://i.ibb.co/RNFWS5c/Browser-Preview-tmp-3.gif https://i.ibb.co/BnX3Q1y/Browser-Preview-tmp-4.gif

The tech: 0.02" thin film transferred onto a shirt https://i.ibb.co/7v41xf0/Browser-Preview-tmp-5.gif

I'm asking because this would be a significant investment to make 100 of them and I am sure about the tech but unsure about what GIF.

Are you going to sell them? Homer is definitely not public domain.

The homer one no, it's just a concept to give you an idea

If you make one with the guy blinking I’d happily buy it. https://amp.knowyourmeme.com/memes/blinking-white-guy

Great idea, thank you. Would look very interesting as you walk past it: https://i.ibb.co/0n39N4X/Browser-Preview-tmp-7.gif

I may get in trouble for copyright, but thank you for the idea!

"This is fine" is exactly what popped into my mind as well.
