Thank you so much!!! I can't recommend Metropolis enough lol, it is honestly life changing. Also it's always so cool finding someone else who antiques (your button collection is really fun!! I also love learning about political history!) do you have other things you like to collect/antique? :-)
Hello! You seem like the perfect candidate to join my 60s webring! No pressure, of course. But maybe that's something you're interested in :)
i made mine in procreate, i just took an existing image i already had and manually added a rainbow background animation by editing the background color in each frame. i do think theres button makers out there where you can just import your image and it will do the rest tho!
There's sadgrl's button maker which is a good start I think https://sadgrlonline.github.io/88x31-button-maker/ And if you want to play around with pixel art a bit more you should check out https://www.pixilart.com/
