@dan I recently watched this YouTube video and was wondering where you got the swirly lines video from?

I would love to use it on a project I am working on.

Many thanks,

John

I generated it with some AI tools, so it’s free to use with no copyright, etc… Have fun!

Did you know (Happy accident), You can actually drop a video into teh image well here in a text component for some rather fancy Headings.

👌

I tried it too and it worked but I didn’t have time to see if it works well on all browsers.  
it’s very nice, I usually use animated GIFs and the result is similar but it takes up less space 🙂

I’ve used the video in this way and it looks great. Thanks for the tip!

Word of warning re: dropping in a video instead of an image in text component.

This is already in the API (but it currently does not work).

```json
"resource": {
    "accepts": "jpg, jpeg, png, gif, webp, bmp, svg, tiff"
}

```

When it does work, this drop zone may me limited to dropping an image. 🤷‍♂️
