okkkk doing this and setting width/height to zero for hidden and auto for visible SEEMS to be my jank workaround, though now there is the issue of the static gifs just. not appearing for the buttons. it works for girlfield tho
funny thing is, when you hit play - it does actually play the gif animations! but when you hit stop the buttons just. disappear. i think it may have something to do with the canvas
this is vs. display: none - in this case the data isn't loaded unless the targetted element is set to display:block or something)
