It’s Mars!

It’s a bit like the one I made for the Space Engine community, but that one is fictitious.

If anyone decides to use it, I hope you enjoy!

Oh, I’ve tested it as an icon, and even though the thumbnail image looks a bit wonky, it looks fine as an icon.

    I like it! I looks great. I didn’t know we could have animated community icons! I’ve made it the community icon now. Thank you!

      Thank you, and I’m glad it’s working! I made a Jupiter one also, and you’re welcome to keep it and swap them out from time to time if you want, maybe I’ll make some more! Oh, and animated banners also work, just confirmed!

    Not to downplay your work, but I was thinking Jupiter or Saturn would look epic, especially if the Saturn is wobbling a little

      Saturn would be tricky because of the rings, but I’d love to do Jupiter! It might even look like a static image unless the red spot were in view, but when it appeared it would freak some people out I bet. :D …Like the statue that suddenly blinks at you!

        you can do minor variations in the layers, they can amplify the effect that its spinning, excited

          I’d love to increase the color saturation and contrast (even though it probably wouldn’t look as natural), but editing webp files is proving harder than making them to begin with. :(
