Static images can be simply transformed into TextMesh Pro Rich-Text tags by using:

gh-image-transformer path/to/image.png

Optionally you can also select the width and height. By default, it will resize the image by a width of 64px. If you want to resize the image by height just place a -1 at the spot of the width.

Keep in mind that the images should be kept below 100px since Grey Hack has a limit of 160000 characters for each print line. Anything above that may cause the image to be displayed incorrectly.

Via the additional options, you can also change the scale of each pixel by default that value is 2. It is not recommended to go lower since that will cause vertical space between lines.

GIFs can be transformed into TextMesh Pro Rich-Text tags animation frames by using:

gh-animation-transformer path/to/image.gif

The options of the animation transformer are the same as the ones from the normal image transformer. There is only one additional option which is about the delay between each frame.

Note: It is highly recommended to use either greybel-js or greybel-vs to import animations otherwise you end up with a lot of copy paste depending on how many frames the GIF got.

In case you are using greybel-js you just need to execute greybel path/to/image.src. It is recommended to use the --create-ingame flag to avoid copy-pasting all the files.

If you are using greybel-vs you just need to right click on the image.src and select build. To make it more convenient please make sure to activate the create-ingame option.
