Animated text styles
Wave lifts the letters in a wave that runs from left to right.
Bounce makes the letters hop one after another and squash a little when they land.
Pop shows the text, shrinks it away, then brings the letters back one at a time. Each one pops in a bit too big and settles.
Zoom shrinks the whole text to nothing, then grows it back, just past full size before it settles.
Neon flicker lights the letters like a neon sign that cuts out now and then, with one letter flickering on its own.
Shake makes every letter tremble in its own direction.
Pop and Zoom hold the finished text for about a second and a half before they start again. The others loop with no pause.
Animated text settings
Text takes up to 60 characters on one or two lines. The GIF is never wider than 480 px, so a long line is made smaller until it fits.
Speed runs from 1, slow, to 10, fast.
Outline color goes around every letter. Set it to the text color if you don't want an outline.
Transparent background is on to start with, so the GIF sits on any page or chat. Turn it off to pick a background color. Neon flicker only glows on a background color, because a transparent GIF can't have soft edges.
