those huge fucking endlessly spinning veilspun gifs all over shadom's threads this week... why. WHY. i want to puke on whoever thought that was a good idea.
i can't spend too long looking at it to be sure, but the art is probably cute! the obnoxious animation and disregard for accessibility, though... *so* not cute.
example thread (obvious warning for large nauseatingly-animated gifs, if you have motion sensitivity issues like i do): https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/raf/3398357
yeah. no shade at all to the artist, they probably didn't have multiple copies of the gif scrolling around on their screen while designing it... but *nobody* on the dom team saw it and thought "y'know, maybe this isn't the best kind of image to plaster all over a thread"? especially with all the dialogue about accessibility and animations with the release of effects this week?
Between the gif, exalt bonuses being missed, and an attendant's name being misspelled, the whole thing is off to a loosey-goosey start. I'm a little disappointing in shadowdom rn tbh
