Image Ready 3.0: Resolved!

[ZfrkS62]

Adobe's online help is worthless :? How do you create an animated gif from original pics?

Minacious, i know you're the gif master from previous experience (ie all my family guy sigs) so maybe you can post up some screen cap tutorials on baisic animation creations?

I've got 6 pics that need to be looped but i can't figure out how to get one pic to roll to the next and like i said the adobe online help is useless.

LOL...keep trying...noob!!! :mrgreen:

I would help you but in this laptop I don't have imageready. I learned by clicking everything and ruining a lot of gifs

first you take the image you want to use

then you put it in PS and move it in the frames you want and save it like this in .gif format

(that is the long and involved part each save is ONE frame keep that in mind the smoother you want it the more you need.)


then open Imageready

goto file>import>files as frames

then goto the animation bar and set up the timing

this is the finished product

Also when you save it, use saved optimized as

Corel 8 makes it idiot proof.... but the quality vs. size leaves a bit desired

thanks SWT. When you see my new sig, you'll know i figured it out :D

[TNT]

haha cool just keep in mind i am using Imageready ver. 9 but i don't think it should of changed that much.

[Minacious]

Did you get it resolved?

[ZfrkS62]

i'm going to try it tonight and see if i can get it.

[ZfrkS62]

ok, i got it animated, but when i try to save it, it will only let me save as psd. what do i have to do to save as a gif?

edit: See my new sig addition :D Thanks for the help!

[TNT]

no new addition in sig.


you have to save optimized as. images only.

[ZfrkS62]

check again. I had to upload it and hotlink to it :D

nice :good: it could be a bit smoother but its very good, you can take the timing below the .1 sec. go to .03 sec.

a) that was made with 6 pics

b) the timing of the frames is pretty close to the timing of the song

c) all frames except the last one are .3, with the last one being .5

well then that works great then. :mrgreen:
