I've been out of the webdev game for perhaps a decade. The most recent things I've done are @Media queries.<p>Finding this inspires me to learn about what else I could create in css - also it has really funky behavior in IE8~ and if you zoom in:)<p>Note - this isn't mine, it was found on r/programming.

It is a re-post but who cares. I'm very impressed with the results, it's very easy to spot when something's not quite right with a character draw (eyes too big/small, mouth slightly too wide etc) but I can imagine getting this close to the 'real' thing wasn't easy.
This has been posted before (8 months ago): <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6710863" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6710863</a><p>But according to the git-commit log, in the last two weeks, he's added the blinking (the code for which is pretty cool)...and since the last submission, he's added Apu, Comic Book Guy, and Ralph Wiggum...so that definitely deserves a resubmit.<p>Given that the blinking was the first difference I noticed...I would love to see Blinky, the 3-eyed fish<p>on a side note...I remember cloning the repo as soon as I saw it on HN, just because I thought for sure it would attract a takedown notice. Hope I didn't just jinx it...
use ctrl+ a few times to make everything larger - the eyelids start to close. Not sure how intentional that was, but it's sort of cool - gives the characters a completely different feel.
