A place to meme about the glorious ROMAN EMPIRE (and Roman Republic, and Roman Kingdom)! Byzantines tolerated! The HRE is not.

RULES:

  1. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, bigotry, etc. The past may be bigoted, but we are not.

  2. Memes must be Rome-related, not just the title. It can be about Rome, or using Roman aesthetics, or both, but the meme itself needs to have Roman themes.

  3. Follow Piefed.social rules.

That is the singular most compressed piece of pixel art I have ever seen.

Unfortunately, it was much bigger when I downloaded it, but upload limits forced me to put it through EZgif's optimizer until it was small enough to upload.

Where is the original I can compress it

[–] PugJesus@piefed.social 4 points 4 months ago

I don't remember where I originally found it, other than somewhere on Reddit. I compressed it originally and uploaded it almost a year ago, and unfortunately reverse image search isn't being very helpful.

Sorry.
