ste Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 do you have flash Prateek? you can make animated gifs with that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iyeru42 Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 do you have flash Prateek? you can make animated gifs with that*dodges* Watch what you're saying there. Flash can't go above web standards unless you have some miracle plugin that bypasses it. If you're planning on using flash 8, export the flash animation as a PNG sequence. After that, go into Photoshop and add each image as a separate frame for each new layer, then export the animated GIF through Photoshop. Make sure you don't have any transparencies.

PrateekSaxena Posted March 23, 2007 Author Share Posted March 23, 2007 This is a frame by frame GIF animator much like Microsoft's GIF Animator, I am talking about something more dynamic.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest FirefoxRocks Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 Why don't you use SVG? They allow animation and you can learn it free at W3Schools! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrateekSaxena Posted April 2, 2007 Author Share Posted April 2, 2007 Cause it is not fully supported in all browsers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morrisjohnny Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 GIMP?gimp.org i think. It's like paint shop pro but it's open source, lots of features. only some times i can take awhile to do the simplest of things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nim199 Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Hi,I use Revalation Natural Art (RNA), which gives you a huge amount of control over the animations. It is aslo simple to use, but, you cannot have 'items' which you can select and move about like in power point.But the GIMP is free, so, get that. Or, download an older version of Serif Draw Plus. You can export to all sorts of things from there (but in my opinion, Draw Plus can't do anything except add fancy styles). Draw Plus is also free, or you can bye the latest version from somewhere.Thanks For Reading! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nim199 Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Prateek,Do you want a large amout of images, or not, because in JS, you can flick between a few images, but if you use to many, it just takes ages to load the page. With JS, you could also use Jpegs, which would give better image quality.Go to www.javascriptworld.com: the code is in there somewhere.Hope this helps.

hybridgoomba Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 The GIMP has animation features, and you can download the GAP(GIMP animation package) for added features. plus it's free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpOrTsDuDe.Reese Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 GIMP is personally my favorite. I have a website and Im using animated GIF's using GIMP. It doesn't take long either. But thats just me. I find it easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Knight Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 I'd say you should use Easy Gif Animator is easy to use and its capable to creat efects of animation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpOrTsDuDe.Reese Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 I find it doesn't have what I need. I like using GIMP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
