Lemmy instance admins, please feel free to use it if you want. That’s a transparent PNG, here’s the PSD file. Feel free to edit to your liking, no credit needed (but it’s appreciated if you want).

Edit: just realized that some folks may not recognize this. It’s the Lemmy version of a reddit image that appeared at the bottom of the page in the old reddit version. It always made me smile, so I recreated it.

Edit 2: Creative Commons License TLDR: do whatever you want idc

    It reminded me of the image of the whale when Twitter was down. Maybe Lemmy devs can use it for similar purpose :)

      The fail whale!! 😍 What a cute and fun way that was to get an error! I had forgotten all about that but knew this image reminded me of something.

      OP, this is awesome! The color and texture of the balloons, the expressive pose - it all adds up to something really special. Great work!!

    Now that you mentioned, I remember seeing that Reddit’s alien balloons image.

    Yours is waaaay cuter! I hope we get to see it more on lemmy.

    ( ͡° ʖ̯ ͡°) It looks like torture.

    Some sick idea of a deranged kid. It has the same feeling as tying cans to a cats tail, as seen in some movie I cannot remember. Imagine someone tying helium balloons on a mice and letting it go. …

    Anyway …

    (☞゚ヮ゚)☞ I like it!

    Nice work! If Kbin ever gets a mascot, someone will have to draw it flying with balloons so I can make it @FloatingIsFun 's new icon.

    When releasing art, I recommend using a Creative Commons license such as “CC BY 4.0”. They have a license chooser you can use.

      Ah yeah I know about CC licenses, just didn’t even think to use one in this case. I’ll go do it now, thanks for the reminder!
