edit: OH GORS you beat me to it >:{
It's not even the animated part. It's 2 images. It's right next to the animated one.
Literally all you have to do is plop the new "select2.png" into the directory where the original one. It overwrites it, and voila! Transparency!
Best of all, it saves you like 4kb of server space!!!! OoO
I mean, I guess I could see your position here - you wrote the entire CMS from the ground up so of course there's a concern that something's bound to break if you make even the smallest of changes to it. Also, every page of the site must've been hand-coded and not done in like
ASP or something where pages dynamically load based on the inquiry, otherwise you're pasting that same page-changing code like 50 times which is a bit tedious.
but yeah this doesn't require touching the code at all. it's somewhat kinda splitting hairs, but it's a nice cosmetic change and if you somehow change up the Resources at any point with new background colors, you'd find this out at a later point anyhow.
and um image filesize should have little to no impact on the site, unless you wrote something in the code that explicitly states "This image MUST have [this] many colors, no transparency index and is [this exact filesize]"
which uhh
whoa dang dude that's pretty cool if you did. because that's really, really specific code. ngl
