# Hello God
I'm not new;

What's the beef? The original image is public domain, the licence is here.

I took out every other frame, resized it, and otherwise manipulated it to be suitable for here.

What'd I do wrong?

# The board is generally for stuff which people have personally made
This is something which someone else has made and you have linked to (albeit edited it to make it smaller). So it's better to put it on the links page so that someone elses hard work isn't pushed off the board.

If you had edited it and put a CDC in the middle of it then it would be right at home on /board.

# OK, I'll do something more to it later.
But please don't be arsey, everyone. I really don't see much difference - if I recolour it and make it spin backwards, it 'becomes' my own work more than the optimisation I did?

It's no more of a source than the brushes you use in Photoshop.

# you didnt make it
and it pushes someones own work off the board. we like original here, its just the way we are. if you edit it and make it your own, fine but edit it to really make it your own by enhancing it with dancing tigers and flaming penguins, then you will woo'd and lovedup like a choir boy with a priest

# It still isn't your original work
Make it change into triangles, or I agree with the flaming penguins idea - but just changing the colour still doesn't make it YOURS.

# flaming penguins should be mandatory
a moderator modded a thread - i thought moderators were a things of legend and not real, like unicorns and endless curlywurlies.

# I do wonder sometimes
I have seen things well over a meg go completely unpoliced. This was at least a fairly minor sin

# Yes
spin it backwards and put a kitten inside running to try and get out

# You didn't actually make it yourself
Links would have been a much better choice

# /board is a place for posting "your own work"
Resizing does not normally constitute your own work...

Never mind, I enjoyed seeing the image. Have a pearoast from yesterday to cheer you up

# Ooh!
This has added lipstick and frowning face since yesterday, hasn't it?

# The lipstick was on the source image, scarily enough!
but the frowning face was a late addition, yes :)
