Suddenly Vanishing Gravity

Hey, cool:yes:
Opera has support for APNG now.
for more info about APNG see:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animated_Portable_Network_Graphics
http://labs.mozilla.com/2007/08/better-animations-in-firefox-3/
http://littlesvr.ca/apng/

here are some example APNGs(there is a little flickering in the first frame, im not sure if this is a bug in Opera or in the firefox apng encoder):


if the image above is not animating, you'll need a newer build of Opera, or a firefox3 nightly.

more examples can be found on my website:

i'm also currently writing an SVG2APNG converter as a firefox extension:

maybe something like this would be possible as an Opera widget.
for this i would need access to an apng encoder, not sure if this is possible via js.
anyways, this is again some great news, at least there is a posibility to get rid of animated gifs someday.
great job Opera Team:up:

it seems i've won this weeks thinkGeek price, and i feel very honoured.
thanks everyone for downloading and voting !!!

other things that happend

Connect 4 is another widget i've posted this week, so if you want to play a game of connect4 against your browser, this is your widget :-)
note that the widget contains the SVGGraffity font i've recently posted.

and as we are at it, there is a few Opera specific resources I've added to my homepage beside a few SVGFonts, I've added some more SVG Filter Examples, to show of what you can do with the new SVG Features in Opera. Hope this is usefull to someone.

I've recently been working on an SVG Font that works in Opera.
you can find it here:
