If you might be interested in using LifeViewer for either animated or still images, here's a very quick recent summary of how to do that, from the forums. It seems like it will probably look better than PNG or animated GIF images. The ones you've uploaded recently seem to be a little gray or blurry sometimes -- probably Golly's standard off-white background rather than the LifeWiki's solid white?

The best way to get all the LifeViewer syntax right is probably to copy the syntax from an existing article with an infobox that's already in the right category. For example, period-256 glider gun could be used as a basis for your new stub entry period-156 glider gun.

You can copy in the syntax, make the appropriate changes to the infobox attributes, and just keep previewing until it looks right. For inline images not in the infobox, copy the syntax from an article that has embedded LifeViewer images, like buckaroo.

If any questions come up, please ask them -- here or elsewhere! Dvgrn (talk) 11:52, 4 October 2018 (UTC)
