Stealth Frog
Stealth Frog is /qa2/ approved. | |
Stealth frog is an exquisite artform of hiding frogs inside random images, most notably weabshit in order to trick an unsuspecting weab into saving the infected image of their favorite 2D tranime woman. The exact motives behind stealth frogs as an artform predate the creation of /qa2/ by several years, but brave /qa2/triots eventually began embedding redpills inside weabshit imagery, generating even more seethe.
It's worth noting that stealth frogs on weab-oriented boards are usually kept up for hours to the point of archival, so long as most of (((them))) don't notice.
Hiding in GIFs[edit | edit source]
You can hide a frog in a GIF image, but it's not as trivial as hiding in a static image though. Hence this guide.
Hiding a frog in a GIF is a matter of making a slideshow GIF with at least 2 frames: the original image, and the reveal. You can then set a time delay between frames so that it turns into the second frame revealing the frog.
On 4chan, the thumbnail of GIF posts is always the first frame. By setting no delay between the reveal, and disabling looping, you can make an image that looks normal in the thumbnail, but "magically" turns into a Pepe when expanded.

Steganography[edit | edit source]
Another way to hide frogs in a static image is through steganography. It's perhaps one of the most reliable ways to sneakily hide your frogs steganographically inside weabshit images, resulting in an unsuspecting weab downloading the image without knowing what's really in there.
You can see the results for yourself.

Janny Response[edit | edit source]
As mentioned before, jannies give no fucks and are reluctantly known to allow stealth frogs to stay on the catalog for as long as possible, unless a weab points it out or the stealth frog is too subtle or obvious that it justifies thread deletion. Either way, it's keyed.
Did I ever tell you that they don't check /jp/ that often? Thereby allowing the stealth frogs to stay up for hours, or even days, even after someone points it out? You can try this by either posting a stealthie in an already-existing thread or making a new thread entirely (don't make it too obvious though, and make sure it pertains to the board's topic.)
