New pixiv thing for animation

Apparently pixiv made a thing that animates stuff. Sadly, the format they use its purely on javascript or something so you cant save the images as gifs or apng, so we outta luck. In case any of you find a workaround pls post it here so we can upload any animated stuff.

You can find a link to a zip file with all the frames of the animation if you search for 'ugoira1920x1080.zip' in the source of the page:

http://i1.pixiv.net/img-zip-ugoira/img/2014/06/25/16/27/42/44299596_ugoira1920x1080.zip

The delay of each frame is next to that link.
You can then use something like ImageMagick to convert it into a gif:

The only problem is that each frame can have a different delay.

edit: I uploaded one of those animations (post #59509).

I got a '403 Forbidden' error when I tried to download the zip file. The solution was to use a download manager and set the referring page to http://www.pixiv.net

Thanks for the guide. Tried it out with this post #59511.

I made a command line program to automate the process of downloading and converting these into GIFs:

It requires ImageMagick

You can also find a couple of scripts on danbooru that can convert the animations to other formats, like apng and webm (I didn't test them):
