Add more icons and animations

[mbr-sn]

Can we add some more icons and animations to the gfx folder?
Attached is one I created, feel free to add it to the code, share and enjoy.
python3 ./led-badge-11x44.py -s4 -m5 :gfx/animated_alien_48x11.png:

if you open a pull-request and ensure the icon is drawn by yourself i think we can merge this.
@jnweiger any doubts?

That is a nice one!
Yes, as @s-light says, the only 'obstacle' is copyright and licensing.
We need to know if you created this yourself, or from where it came, and under which license we would be able to use it.
If it's your own design, any you don't have any specific requirments, I suggest that you pick the same license that we use for the rest of this project, GPLv2:

It is obviously inspired by old arcade games, but I drew it myself from scratch pixel by pixel, so I guess copyright is not an issue (ianal though). Permission is hereby granted with the same license as the rest of the code, GPLv2. :-)

It took me a while to figure out that it actually needs an image with 48x11 pixel frames, even though my display is 44x11. But one must not use the rightmost 4 columns, otherwise they "wrap around" to the left side of the display, it's a bit confusing at first. So I thought sharing an example would be nice for demo purposes.

Image Magick is a useful tool by the way to split and merge the frames.

I'd appreciate if that were to be mentioned in the README, as this is crucial information.

Animations weren't mentioned in the README add all. Added b23c84a
