Welcome to Risa

All the pleasure of shore leave, none of the holodeck glitches.

Rule 1 — Be Civil, Not Klingon

This is a vacation planet, not the neutral zone.

No harassment, brigading, or trolling
No bigotry
Keep the banter playful, not hostile

Rule 2 — No Prohibited Cargo

Some things aren’t welcome aboard.

No spam or scams
No porn or sexually explicit content
No illegal content
NSFW memes must be properly tagged

Rule 3 — Keep It Trek

Posts should be Star Trek memes or Trek-adjacent humor.

Crossovers are fine
Low-effort “unrelated” memes may be spaced out the nearest airlock

Rule 4 — Gatekeeping Belongs in a Black Hole

You’re welcome to have your own opinions on what counts as “real” Star Trek but forcing your view on others or pretending it’s the only valid one? That’s not the Starfleet way.
Everyone’s Trek is valid, from TOS purists to Lower Decks shitposters, and you don't get to dictate what is real or not for everyone.

If you see a post that violates the rules, or that doesn't inspire Jamaharon, report it so the mods can handle it.

Otherwise grab a horga’hn, order a Risan Mai Tai, and enjoy your shore leave.

So I don't make the memes I post but I do make gifs out of boredom. I made a ton for The Blacklist that I could throw up on Tenor and stuff so that I could easily use GIFs of a show I quite like. Blah. But I just went to use a 'I'm a role Model' gif from TNG and it looked like shit. Bad text, bad quality, bad bad bad. It bothers me. Much like it bothered me that there were no Blacklist gifs. So...

Want to see a specific GIF redone/remastered? Want a scenes would you like to see as a GIF? Or... Well..

Please do me a favor though if you can. While I do have a pretty large array of knowledge on Star Trek, it isn't infinite. A general idea of the episode and what time in it would help a ton. Also, looking primarily for TNG gifs at the moment. I've been running out of Hard Drive Space for months and I've had to start deleting stuff en-masse. I don't have all Star Trek currently downloaded at the moment, as much as it kills me, so ideally stuff from TNG, Voyager, Picard, Lower Decks, Discovery, or Strange New Worlds. Can get DS9, TOS, etc again easily but just a bit more of a hassle.

Alternatively, I will accept Galaxy Quest and Eureka requests too. As well as any general feedback or ideas. I can't say I'm good at this but I am learning and adding in tips and tricks that I'm slowly figuring out. Making them a bit better and better. Hell, scroll down to the bottom of that first link I posted and you'll see how fucking crusty it was originally. I just want some more Trek gifs that don't look like this

Gonna leave this up for a bit. I'll make em as I make 'em <3

Got one for ya. PIC s3e6 "The Bounty" when Worf says "That is a relief. I was practicing deceit." and/or the follow-up "Breakups on my homeworld seldom end without bloodshed."

I am currently lying in bed, but I will be up in five-ish hours and I shall start working on it.

So I've only ever really been uploading them to Tenor in order to use. That being said, Tenor takes a few days. So not quite sure how to make it look as good as they do if I were doing some conversion manually. That being said?

Thanks for indulging me.

[–] Stamets@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 month ago

You got it, my man. If you have any other requests, feel free to ask. It takes literally minutes.

Well it turned out shit lmao I forgot to crop the file first so it squished it. So gimme another couple days...

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

No worries. Digging the text effect.

[–] Stamets@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago

Having gotten a chance to remake it yet, but if the text effect is something that you want to look different in any fashion, please let me know. It is quite easy. Like stupidly easy. And if it isn't, then it gives me a chance to learn the things so it becomes easy in the future.
