# Blob foxes emotes repository
|
|
|
|
A repository containing the "blobfox" emotes, [originally made by Feuerfuchs](https://web.archive.org/web/20211115174913/https://www.feuerfuchs.dev/en/projects/blobfox-emojis/)
|
|
and released under the Apache 2.0 license.
|
|
<!-- TODO: find new link+email for feuerfuchs -->
|
|
Work was initially made [on a public archive](https://git.lambdaurora.dev/lambdaurora/diverse_archive) to vectorized some of the blobfoxes,
|
|
but as more variants were created, the project needed a new, dedicated place to reside.
|
|
|
|
This repository also contains additional blobfoxes, blobcats and other blob animal characters, which are all made available under the Apache 2.0 license.
|
|
|
|
The goal of this project is to vectorize the entire set of blobfoxes.
|
|
Automation is key for that, and a solution that can generate clean (both in terms of readability and visual accuracy) results with minimal tweaking will have to be built.

## Installation and usage
|
|
|
|
*TODO :)*
|
|
|
|
## Project structure
|
|
|
|
*(this will likely have changed by the time you are reading this)*
|
|
|
|
- `blobfox.tar.gz` is the tar archive of the original set of blobfox emojis; run `mkdir original && tar -xf blobfox.tar.gz -C original` to uncompress the archive
|
|
- `custom/` contains PNG versions of variants based on the above archive that haven't been vectorized yet
|
|
- `vector/` contains vectorized versions of the blobfoxes (not necessary limited to the original blobfoxes)
|
|
|
|
## How to help
|
|
|
|
If you'd like to help, there are a few things that need attention outside of implementing features:
|
|
|
|
- `TODO`s around the code (currently in the `feat/template` branch)
|
|
- vectorize high-value emotes (emotes which contain assets not present in others);
|
|
the usual procedure is to copy the `blobfox.svg` file and to edit away, making sure not to move the body around
|
|
- draw base emotes for other species:
|
|
- raccoon
|
|
- doberman
|
|
- german shepherd
|
|
- collie
|
|
- sheep
|
|
- etc.
|
|
- clean up the SVG for the existing emotes (the `clean` binary in `feat/template` is meant to do the heavy-lifting)
