How does one go about making one of these? I messed around with photoshop but I couldn't figure it out.
Actually, that's what I used. My version of Photoshop is linked to ImageReady. I couldn't figure it out. Is there a link on YouTube or somewhere online where I can watch someone walk through it?
I don't have Photoshop installed on this computer, or i'd guide you through it. Been a while, but it's pretty easy. There's got to be a ton of tutorials for that kind of thing. This was one of the first results from a quick google search http://www.mediacollege.com/adobe/photoshop/animation/
You can make an animated gif in photoshop. I've done a couple really simple ones. There are plenty of tutorials online.
It's as easy as taking all your separate layers (these layers are the frames in the gif.) and use a drag and drop method to stack them on top of each other, In succession. My avatar was done it photoshop.
Once you've done that, click file/save for web.
Clicking "save for web" will open a window. Click "animate"
In that window you also have a few other options for speed of the frames, size, quality, etc...
The hardest or time consuming part of using photoshop to do this is you have to make all the layers the same size and make sure they are aligned properly otherwise the motion will not look fluid. The ones I did were only a few frames. I'm assuming Image Ready is probably a little more automated to make it more simple/quicker.
The easy way to make those is edit video in Premiere and save it as a gif. YMMV
Thanks guys. I'm gonna screw with it when I get home from work today. If it works then I'll go ahead and post them here, even if they suck.
Hayden having an "off" at Sachsenring.
Just as I was missing my Triumph, thanks for reminding me why I sold it
I used photoshop to make all the images gifs, then dropped them into a free program called UnFreeze to make the animations.
