How does the skill handle Slack's 64KB emoji limit?

The skill uses an 'Emoji Mode' in its GIFBuilder that applies aggressive color quantization (32-48 colors), limits frame counts, and simplifies designs to ensure the final file meets Slack's strict 64KB requirement.

What is the recommended size for a Slack message GIF versus an emoji?

For messages, the toolkit targets 480x480 pixels under 2MB. For emojis, it enforces a strict 128x128 pixel dimension and a sub-64KB file size for successful uploading.

Does this skill require external image processing libraries?

The skill is designed to work within a Python environment, typically utilizing PIL (Pillow) for frame rendering and its own internal logic for animation and Slack validation.

Can I layer multiple animations together?

Yes, the animation primitives are composable. You can combine building blocks like 'bounce' and 'shake' or 'rotate' and 'pulse' to create complex, custom motion paths for your objects.
