Sunflag Live Background Animation Generator in GIF, MP4, WebM/WebP

Usage

Full sized live/animated background can be used in various ways, such as in website background, or use to fill HTML / SVG elements. You can also use them as slide / video background.

Here is an example of using animated pattern as background of an icon animation:

<div
  style="background:url(/your-background-url)">
  <img src="your-icon-url">
</div>

As some examples, we use lots of animated background in loading.io, which you can find in following pages:

Formats

All backgrounds can be generated in GIF, MP4, WEBM and APNG formats, and vector-based backgrounds can be generated in SVG formats. PNG sequence or static PNG are also available. To choose the right format for yourself, you should check the compatibility and quality of these file format before using them.

GIF

Provides the best compatibility, while big in size and low in quality. supports only up to 256 colors at most.

Supported by all browsers, even by old browser such as IE5 or Netscape.

SVG
