Get rid of the massive phat ones

Opened this issue · 2 comments

To save on bandwidth, and otherwise trim the fat off the download, you could get rid of the huge GIFs which by all means are funny, but they are liable to kill our pipes.

See screenshot below. There's only 15 here which are the culprits. You need to nuke em:

@dhig thanks for the suggestion, but I'm going keep most of those in my repo. I might cut a few, but several of them are some of me favorite gifs. Plus they really aren't that big (the largest is just over 10MB, which, although large by gif standards, is still a relatively small file).

I'd suggest if if you want to maintain a more lightweight version of the repo, you could always fork and nuke the ones you don't think you'll ever use. 👍

Also, maybe I don't understand your concern here. What specifically are you concerned about?
