Stealth Frog

Stealth frog example.

Stealth frog is an exquisite artform of hiding frogs inside random images, notably weabshit in order to trick an unsuspecting weab into saving the infected image of their favorite 2D tranime woman. The exact motive of stealth frogs as an artform predates the creation of /qa2/ by several years.

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

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.

Janny Response

As mentioned before, jannies give no fucks and are reluctantly known to allow stealth frogs to stay on the catalog, 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 inside a thread or just making a new thread entirely (don't make it too obvious though, and make sure it pertains to the board's topic.)
