flagwaver VS cool-retro-term

!wave

I'm using this online tool: https://krikienoid.github.io/flagwaver/

Here's the link to FlagWaver if anyone else wants to try it with their flag designs. https://krikienoid.github.io/flagwaver/

You can use FlagWaver to test how your designs would actually look "in the wild".

You have made a minor mistake with the black swallowtail not extending all the way, but this is easily fixed by booting up a program like Paint.net and simply deleting all the pixels to make the swallowtail interior truly transparent. After that I'd definitely experiment with letting your designs fly in Flagwaver, since I have a feeling they would look hold up really well while fluttering in the wind.

The second image shows the construction, and the third the Royal Banner of Selasund, which I like because it looks like a bird opening its beak and wiggling its tongue around, especially on flagwaver

If you're interested in working out any final kinks I would recommend running the design through a website like flagwaver, which lets you visualize how it would look from several realistic angles. Also consider just messing with the file, lowering the brightness etc. to see if it stays distinguishable in poor lighting.

Silly little AR models maybe? The thing I’ve trying to cobble together at the moment is a flag waving simulator like https://krikienoid.github.io/flagwaver

So custom image on a static animation, so you can checkout how a flag design would look when flying.

this is a pretty cool website https://krikienoid.github.io/flagwaver/

This is the best way to play short of hooking up your needle printer as a faux teletype terminal.

Very related: Cool-Retro-Term (CRT) - a terminal that makes it look retro ;)

You're covered: https://github.com/Swordfish90/cool-retro-term

Seems like a good spot to mention https://github.com/Swordfish90/cool-retro-term

Cool Retro Terminal is a nice accessory for when doing recording or screenshots - cause it looks cool. Can't use it as my daily driver tho.

And enough settings in there you can make it look like your favourite old one.

I'd guess most things you can get now are just regular command prompt style windows with a "retro" look (colour scheme). Oooh, you can change the text to green and maybe add a scan line effect. I am looking for a full experience like the Secret Geometry programs! The only similar-ish one I have found is Cool Retro Term, but that is for Linux and Mac only it seems :/

not directly related, but I've been thinking about getting an old CRT monitor, launch https://github.com/Swordfish90/cool-retro-term and start working

This puts me in mind of Cool Retro Term. Lots of built in schemes.

Usually packaged by your distro.

This together with cool-retro-term[1] is an absolute must on my machines for real hacker hours.

I've enjoyed using this. I don't run it for long but I do run it sometimes for the sake of nostalgia. When I do run it, I run it in full screen for the complete experience. However, to balance practicality with nostalgia, I run a tmux session with the cool-retro-term, so that once I get tired of it, I can quickly switch back to my regular terminal without losing my terminal session.

The effects are configurable. I disable the settings named Burin, Glow Line, and RGB Shift to get crisper and less distracting experience. The RGB Shift setting is disabled for most built-in profiles anyway but enabled for some profiles like Vintage and IBM Dos. The Vintage profile is quite amusing. Everything is cranked way up. The blurry text and the incessant flickering of the screen create an unsettling impression that the monitor might break down any moment.

By the way, if you didn't notice it the app is named cool-retro-term and it abbreviates to CRT. The app icon[1] is also a CRT followed by the cursor. Guess what else abbreviates to CRT? Yes, "cathode-ray tube" of the cathode-ray tube (CRT) computer monitors
