What do you think? I made it because I couldn't find any others like it, and I want to know how the WP community feels about it. Is it too snarky, too apathetic, or is it good? It is supposed to have somewhat of an "edge" to it.

I like it. It gets the message across cleverly without being snarky.

I like that! It's crisp and to-the-point. Plus, your attitude is right on.......Now I just wish outsiders could overlook their own biases.

I think it's clever. Unfortunately for me the flashing effect could give me a bout of sensory overload so I would have to be careful to only look at it a little bit but it's good. You could even make some with different sayings like. "I have Asperger's...and I'm awesome" I know, I am not that clever so mine might be a little lame! But you could come up with really great ones.

I actually tried to make the transition speed fairly slow so that people could read the text, though admittedly I'm a faster reader than many people, and this was my first time making an animated gif. I'll keep the sensory overload issue in mind though, because I know that gif animation speed can vary widely from computer to computer.

Also, I didn't want to go with something that said "I have Aspergers, and I am awesome", because it doesn't really reflect *my* attitude on it, and for some people it may be crossing over into overly prideful territory. As well, there's already about a dozen different stamps with the same sort of message on DA. That being said, I may as well still make one, because I know people will like it, and it won't be all that hard to do.

I like the style.
also it seems very aspie-like, it is straight to the point and neutral, not like "I have aspergers and I am awesome", or "forgive me, I have aspergers", but just a piece of information.

That's exactly how I wanted it to be. I didn't want to add any glittery effects or anything, I just wanted it to pop out and hit you in the face with its message, so to speak.
