Everytime i press animate it says that i need to re-size my frames or delete some. I deleted frames untill i had 4 left. But its still wouldnt let me, how do i do this?
i gotta question 4 u if i wanna make an animated pic but of like a dog or cat running how would i do that without ruining the black line since i would need 2 color it in?
just wanted to let you know, that I'm featuring your video through a link on my DeviantART, my user name there is the same as here. NepinRith.
*i would think you could do the animation with a solid background. i would asume just with the same steps, since it is showing each picture one at a time. but this is only a hopeful guess*
Hi Jack... I'm wondering how I'd go about creating an animated GIF but using a solid colored background rather than transparent. :) I've 1. Created a new file with a filled background 2. CTRL-J the layer...but when I 3. Enter text, it isn't solid background, but transparent.. I know I"ve seen animated GIFs that are solid-colored so I know it can be done. Any help is appreciated. :) Thanks!
@tedology You can not use a solid color because the gif image will not animate after that. It really works as an illusion with one image being hidden and then showing another one.
@42technoman Hi Jack and thanks so much for taking the time to answer. :) I searched and searched and discovered a way to do it (if you're interested) - What I did was create a solid color background. Then I created some text as its own layer. I then CTRL-J the solid background, then I CTRL-J the text (so now I have two of each). I then held CTRL and clicked on a text layer and a color background layer, selecting both layers. I then right-clicked on the color background layer and chose
@tedology "merge layers". This created ONE layer from a text layer and a color background layer. I did the same with all the layers I wanted. I then followed the rest of your tutorial with those NEW layers and it worked. :)
Thanks I'm to cheap to buy Photoshop but I do an online school and it came with a bambo mouse and pen pad thingy ( =_= forgot what its called ) so now im going to make GIFS!!!!!!!
Hi. I just wanted to know if you are aware you spelled 'videos' wrong? ^^; Sorry, just had to mention it ^^; But besides that, it's a really awesome video =D I have tried to find some written turtorials of how to do this, but I've never understood how to make the gif.'s So thank you so mcuh for making this :D
can any one help...ive made an animation however when i try to save it and open it into windows movie maker it only shows the first layer and not the whole animation. If you can help please respond. thanks a pantload
Thank you for the help. I have one question, though. My mac wont let me change the frame delay when I go to save for web. The blue arrow button is grey, and you cant get it to type or drop down. Can you help me?
DUDE!!! This is awesome. I called adobe like a year ago and asked about this and they said you could only do GIF's with cs. Now I am not limited to the flipbook option and only viewing in windows media player. Thanks
is there anyway you can put little transitions between the images..like for instance...i have 2 pictures that i animated, they were both on their own layers but when i animate them...they just switch from one picture to the other...i was hoping i could put a cool transition when one of the pictures switch to the other..
Jack, your video tutorials are always very informative!
Question for you: When you were moving the "JACKS" and "CORNER" layers... do you know of any way to "slide" them on a horizontal? So if I wanted all the words on the same axis, is there a way to make them that way? When I use the move tool, I tend to not always keep the items on the same line (if that makes sense).
for example, to make it blink you have 1 frame eyes open, one with the eyes closed, and then run it on a loop. you can time it differently so they're blinking really fast, or blinking every five seconds.
Nice vid jack:D That was much easier than I thougt..
I just wont to tell that when you have prewied it yo can right click on the picture and click on wiew picture. Than you have it as you did on the end. You can also right click and select "save picture"
Awesome! But u spelled videos vidoes

I have a question. Is it possible to make animated emoticons with Elements 6? I`d love to try making some of those.
kitty3309 3 years ago
it is possible to do that.
you just have to draw each frame of the emoticon
for example, to make it blink you have 1 frame eyes open, one with the eyes closed, and then run it on a loop. you can time it differently so they're blinking really fast, or blinking every five seconds.
GOOD LUCK!
