To make this tool render speech bubble markers which can later be +parsed by ponysay, color the pixels where these should be placed 50% +transparent red (#FF00007F) for a backward slash link, 50% blue for a forward +slash and a 50% transparent green for the speech bubble. Please note that this +tool converts images two pixel rows at once and these "special" color values +are only parsed for the upper of the two rows. An example image is included. + +Credits +------- +That awesome Rainbow Dash is by [starsteppony on deviantart](http://starsteppony.deviantart.com/art/Rainbow-Dash-Salute-263753912) + diff --git a/example.png b/example.png new file mode 100644 index 0000000..bdffea3 Binary files /dev/null and b/example.png differ diff --git a/rainbow-dash.png b/rainbow-dash.png new file mode 100644 index 0000000..1c7c321 Binary files /dev/null and b/rainbow-dash.png differ -- cgit
