Hey Jdthebud, I noticed your anipng work. I was wondering, would it be possible to modify the frame of an anipng so a different default image can be shown? I'm specifically concerned with images such as [[:File:Thunderstorm Rain unused FRLG.png|this]], [[:File:Sandstorm unused FRLG.png|this]], [[:File:Top-Right Mist unused FRLG.png|this]], and [[:File:Thunderstorm Heavy Rain unused FRLG.png|this]], which, when viewed by a browser that cannot see anipngs, will see a black screen. Thanks in advance for your help!

:The best way is to use the [http://apngdis.sourceforge.net/ APNG Disassembler] program.  First, put your anipng into its own folder, then drag it into the program.  I usually leave the output prefix as the default "apngframe", but you can change it if you want. Then hit convert, and when it is done, your folder will have each individual still .png image in the anipng, along with .txt files that specify the delay for each frame in the original anipng file.  Now you are ready to remake the anipng - for best results, use [http://apngasm.sourceforge.net/ ANPG Assembler] as it will use those .txt files to input the delay automatically. First, locate the frame you want for unsupported browsers, and drag it into the program. Then select all of the apngframe files, including the frame you selected earlier - I usually sort the folder by "Type" so this is easier - and drag them as one pile into the program as well. Then make sure you have "Skip the first frame" selected in Playback Settings, hit Convert, and you are good to go!

:FYI, the Sandstorm file you linked to above actually is one I fixed several days ago already, but the other ones do need fixing. Let me know if you have any other questions, and I will be happy to help. [[User:Jdthebud|Jdthebud]] ([[User talk:Jdthebud|talk]]) 17:39, 8 April 2014 (UTC)
