When to Use

✅ Good for:

• Greetings and introductions
• Important announcements
• Celebrating milestones
• Dramatic reveals
• Adding personality to messages

❌ Skip for:

• Long-form content (keep to 1-10 words)
• Urgent safety alerts (plain text is faster)

CLI Script

For quick URL generation, use the included shell script:

# Basic usage
./scripts/iblipper.sh "Hello World"
# https://andyed.github.io/iblipper2025/#text=Hello+World&emotion=emphatic&dark=true&share=yes

# With emotion
./scripts/iblipper.sh "Breaking News" hurry

# Light mode
./scripts/iblipper.sh "Good Morning" idyllic light

# As markdown link
./scripts/iblipper.sh -m "Click me!" excited
# [▶️ Click me!](https://...)

# GIF export URL
./scripts/iblipper.sh --gif "Export this" playful

Tips

• Keep text concise — 1-5 words have the most impact
• Use hyperlinks by default — faster, works everywhere
• Use GIF export for Signal/iMessage — inline images look great
• Always use share=yes in hyperlinks — skips landing page
• Match emotion to message — excited for celebrations, emphatic for important stuff
• Dark mode looks better — dark=true is usually the way to go
• Use sparingly — if every message is animated, none are special
