In the example the yellow text is flashing. This is distracting. It appears to draw attention to the yellow text. Is there a reason for this? Surely the idea is for the yellow text to be less noticeable, only looked at when needed? Is that correct? |

: corrected with twext.cc/pix/22B4.gif (might not work on all monitors.. pls let me know) in this new version the twext may still be too dark, especially for younger eyes.. the old slightly flashing version is at twext.cc/pix/2B3.gif .. thanks |

:: Much better, thank you. Whilst having a look at your 2B3.gif it occurred to me it might be worth trying an animated gif made such that the black text is always visible and the yellow text is off for 25 seconds then on for 5 seconds, that is, the gif would be made from two images, one with just the black letters, viewable for 25 seconds each cycle and one with both the black letters and the yellow letters, viewable for 5 seconds each cycle. Maybe not 25 seconds and 5 seconds, those are just suggestions to start some experiments. Would that help in some cases? |

twext shouldn't blink
In the example the yellow text is flashing. This is distracting. It appears to draw attention to the yellow text. Is there a reason for this? Surely the idea is for the yellow text to be less noticeable, only looked at when needed? Is that correct?
- corrected with twext.cc/pix/22B4.gif (might not work on all monitors.. pls let me know) in this new version the twext may still be too dark, especially for younger eyes.. the old slightly flashing version is at twext.cc/pix/2B3.gif .. thanks
or blink less
- Much better, thank you. Whilst having a look at your 2B3.gif it occurred to me it might be worth trying an animated gif made such that the black text is always visible and the yellow text is off for 25 seconds then on for 5 seconds, that is, the gif would be made from two images, one with just the black letters, viewable for 25 seconds each cycle and one with both the black letters and the yellow letters, viewable for 5 seconds each cycle. Maybe not 25 seconds and 5 seconds, those are just suggestions to start some experiments. Would that help in some cases?
outputs
twext.cc/pix/2B5.psd photoshop doc lets you play too ;) easily animate/save gif in imageready, as you like..
slow blink
here's something like you asked for: http://twext.cc/pix/2B5blink.gif dynamic chunks might make it a little more entertaining.. ie the twext chunk for "NO TE ESPANTAS" could alternate between "don't be afraid" / "don't have a cow"
- Thank you for providing this example.
real twext
this one works on my monitor: http://twext.cc/pix/2B555.jpg but i'm not sure it'll work on your monitor.. feedback? real twext works on static output media like dead trees, real twext works better with young eyes, motivated to learn
priority
many variable outputs are possible, but important? priority focus is make twexter work to make outputs easy, ie with chunk text input, chunkster, MT, CAT, after CSS output etc..
