The cookie wobbles, cracks down the middle and falls open in two halves, scattering crumbs. A rolled-up paper slip rises out of it and unrolls to show your fortune, which stays up for about three seconds before the GIF starts again. It is 480 by 360 px.
Fortune cookie settings
Fortune takes up to 90 characters. It wraps to fit the slip, and the letters shrink as it gets longer, so a short fortune comes out big. Press Enter to start a new line yourself.
Lucky numbers adds a smaller line under the fortune that starts with "LUCKY NUMBERS". Type up to 30 characters in Numbers: six numbers, a date or a short word.
Paper color and Text color set the slip and the writing on it. It starts with red writing on off-white paper.
Background is the color behind the cookie. It starts dark red.
What to write in a fortune cookie
Use it to break news: "You are going to be a big sister" or "Pack your bags, we leave Friday". Send a birthday wish or a good luck message, a made-up prediction for a friend, or the answer to "where should we eat?". A restaurant can post one with a deal written on the slip.
Fortune cookie GIF tips
- Keep it to one or two short sentences. It wraps onto up to three lines on its own, and fewer words means bigger letters.
- Turn off Lucky numbers when the fortune is a message rather than a prediction.
