I must try to stop watching this - I have other things to do. Tron was never this good! |

That looks great Tas_mania. Unfortunately GIF is an antiquated format with high file size and low color count. It is still the most supported and therefore the most used on the web. Yours is 146 frames and just under 5mb. I tried re-encoding your gif with ffmpeg and got a bigger size. You did a good job encoding yours. |

Thanx guys... Erisian, I watched somebody's fractal video last week and could only describe it as 'an intergalactic space craft exploring a persian rug' racer, I used your command Code: Select all ffmpeg -i input -vf scale=500:-1:sws_dither=a_dither -r 12 -pix_fmt rgb8 -loop 0 -an output.gifI only changed the frame rate. This site must use an algorithm that makes gifs smaller and converts them to webm and gifs. |

First, the GIF loaded fast so it must be pretty small in size. Pretty impressive compression that is for sure, Tas.

I recently rendered an Earth in blender @ 8k. Here is the animation done with Aviutl. This gif has 123 frames and is 2.2mb. The gif was encoded with ffmpeg. The "X" marks the spot where I was born... Attachment: Earth.gif [ 2.07 MiB | Viewed 10847 times ] |

That's a good zoom down to Earth racer. I guess that's why you started with an 8k image? |

Nice gifs.  I'm guessing racer-x was born in Braga. |

Close. I was born in Chaves, Portugal. The maps I used are huge, if anyone wants them, you can get them here along with the tutorial. https://www.blenderguru.com/tutorials/earth-cycles You could also do it in Gimp using the map object>shere. You can do two layers. One for the Earth and one for the clouds. I just made one in Gimp and it doesn't look too bad either. Attachment: Earth2.jpg [ 503.7 KiB | Viewed 13303 times ] |

I'm just wrapping this up. I have solved the problem I had which was why spend 2 weeks rendering a 1080p animation only to get 30 or 40 views and still have to pay UTube to remove ads from the videos I watch  So I'm putting the art first and doing 720p videos that only take 8 hours to render on the hardware I have. I also think promoting videos is a weird affliction that never used to exist.Stay happy dudes
