Hi, the PageImage of an article (that is shown in the opening window when mouse cursor is hovered on that article's hyperlinked text in another article) can be an animated story of multiple images of the original article, i.e., instead on a single PageImage (for example, a single *.jpg image), a GIF image of multiple images of that article can be displayed to the user when the user hovers his mouse cursor on that hyperlink. If we use this feature, a more informative story of that concept is shown graphically. Certainly this way, we convey the concept of article intuitively better, at a glance.
So I propose to add a GIF image making capability to Wikipedia. This component would takes as input multiple images and their timings in millisecond and outputs a GIF image. That is:
Input: [image1.jpg, 1ms, image2.jpg, 2ms]
Output: a GIF animation file for this images and timings
Thanks, Hooman Mallahzadeh
