How to make a GIF using Photoshop CS5

[adjgamer]

Naruto ftw!!!!!!!! Thanks, bro!

[Awesomee98]

How do I get quicktime to work? The layers are just white! HELP!

[ang12123]

OH MY GOD! My first video where the music is normal..

[alyanadhirah]

Why I can't open my 'video frames to layers' button? anyone help??

[mrsposhbecks]

which converter do you use?I can't seem to find a converter for mp4 to mov

[ashleeighhxo]

I don't get the little bar at the bottom with all the frames, someone please help?

[firstmess]

@ashleeighhxo window --> animation.

[banshi68]

I fucking hate tutorials that have no vocal guidance but instead have some shitty song that I don't want to hear and blurry pictures that I can't even fucking read. Needless to say I stopped watching after 10 seconds.

[MCRFREAK997]

@banshi68 How about you read the description and stop having a hissy fit?

[EmilyyJenellexo]

how do you get the animation frames thing to show up?

[GemmaMayes]

@EmilyyJenellexo you go to Window>Animation :)

[SleepyDisso]

Why is it when I delete some frames, the first frame goes checkerboard on me?

[AcidKnockDownn]

@SleepyDisso Don't press the del button on your keyboard. Press the rubbish bin on Photoshop instead.

[testing1303]

HI, I have a question. While I make an animated gif which works fine in web browser BUT just uploading the same gif into web site animation is not working. Any tips for solving this issue? Thanks

[AndreaNGrimes]

When you downloads Photoshop you should get two versions, one of them will say 64 bit. Open the other one.

[a7xfanforeverz]

Real shame it only takes quick time files, I don't have time to convert all my files.

[puresoshi]

how to delete bunch of photos? :>

[TheUltimateInsider]

I have a problem: when I try to import the video, something stupid happens. Instead of frames, I get one single black rectangle. Why does that happen? :(

[TVDediter]

At the bottom where it shows you to play your gif that doesn't show up on my photo shop

[LosoFX]

Naruto....

YES!

[naruchix3]

i happen to be making a naruto gif too.

x D

but why doesn't the little video in the box show up T_T? i think the video file is too big o:

its like 275.3M

[keepplayingon2]

[embem104]

@keepplayingon2 I have the same problem :'( wtf

[keepplayingon2]

[smizuzi]

[Sharleenwuzhere]

[kandykreme89]

@Sharleenwuzhere .mov

[JustinBieberFever160]

[HeyCattTv]

@JustinBieberFever160 you need to switch it to 32 bit

[MilkyOwns]

pain is my favorite character from naruto. just wanted to get that out there.

[daisysmartt]

how did you select them all at once? I can't do it.

[bluemerryjuic3]

@daisysmartt hold the shift key :)

[PeterMeehanHD]

Want to switch from windows 32bit to windows 64bit?

Find System32 Folder , empty it , then rename it to Windows64.

This will create an internal paradox which will change Photoshop to 32bit.

[chiejkpop]

Why does is not playing when I post it in tumblr -__-

[Giankun]

I'm too on the 64 bit Ps. how do i switch it to 32? HELP PLZ

[xTenshiAi]

I keep getting a white screen!!!!!! HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP

[BlessMyself]

ooow my screen is white when i'm porting the video;(

[RainbowSprinkles1001]

I would love to do a GIF for my dA account, for my webcam but I need to know; is this program free? (Also, this vid was made in 2010, is there a program like this that is upgraded or it all works the same, it will have a good result?) Can some one tell me about this? PLZ AND THANK YEWS :3

[TheSkuBlue]

I am with this version. Why do I want version 7.1?

[iChrisx93]

does anyone know where i can download Photoshop for free?

I'm too broke & cheap to buy it.

[chrisnnuzz]

@iChrisx93 download the torrent for photoshop

[AppleBoy995]

Can you make a tutorial on how to get blue poop? pls!

[heatherlayne92]

when i open the video in photoshop, it comes up as a white screen. anyone else have this problem and know how to fix it?

[xXxBeckyBooxXx3]

@heatherlayne92 That's what keeps happening to me :/

[n01fanashleyt]

@heatherlayne92 It's easy. You just have to convert the video to another format that you can use in Photoshop. Hope I helped :-)

[UnwantedJSan]

@heatherlayne92 Mine comes up with a black screen instead. I need help too

[jazzylovesth]

What is the right kind of document to use to download videos to Photoshop? (i already used savevid.com but it says it's not the correct document)

[diamondheart1998]

How do I see the Animation (Frames) thingy? I can't seem to find it. :/

[xheavierthanheavenx]

@diamondheart1998 I have the same problem...

[bblingasaurus]

when i click ok, the layers turn black D:

[karenpang4]

it says the quick time thingy needed

[grrMUFFINS]

how do you highlight what u want.. -___-;

[iKazai]

Well, Im on 64 bit Photoshop..

I can't work it? how do I switch to 32.

[ArizonaTrailRider]

@iKazai use the 32bit photoshop. there a 32 and 64 ..

[SupaDuckZilla]

@iKazai Mac or Pc ?

[iKazai]

@SupaDuckZilla pc bruh.

[AcidKnockDownn]

@iKazai You should have 2 versions of Photoshop, at least I do. You get the option when you're downloading/installing it. 32 & 64.

[clarkbai]

@iKazai If you are in Mac, right click photoshop icon --> choose 'Get info' --> tick option "open in 32".

[Brightblackness]

I'm new to PS CS5 and this helped me ALOT!

Learning a new thing every 5 min thanks of you.

Keep it up, mate. :DD

[Zatotan]

in mine it says that i got to have the 32 bit version? huh?

[MrCoThread]

Hey I got a question. When I insert a text into a gif and then I edit it(Blending options) how do I add the blended options to all of my other slides in my animation timeline? Usually to get the text on all of my slides I make sure its the last layer in my layer box but my blended options only stay on the slide I edit it on.

[Lapekachu2]

I am taking tutorial requests. If you want me to do a tutorial on something send me a PM.

[manualmaniac1]

@Lapekachu2 ok can you do a tutorial on flash cs5 movie clips shape tweens n stuff?

[SelGJBAshTPwnU]

@Lapekachu2 how do I save a YouTube video onto a file to do that??

[EmilyTWx]

when i import my video, the frame thing doesnt show up at the bottom... help?

[selphiexfairy]

@EmilyTWx window >> animation.

[aaronABNORMAL]

I'm going to be totally honest here, you have the coolest background ever.

[xboxmon]

This worked well for 1 out of 3. The other 2 are so sloowwwww. What did I do wrong?

[TheHaterz411]

how did you get that play frame on the bottom??

[canadianmangojuice]

ummm its says i have to get quick time 7.1 what is that and where do i get it?

[akiforREAL]

Hey, what format vid did you use? do you still need a video player for this?

[xxPatdxRockzxx]

NARUTO!

[iDanVidz]

only possible on 32 bit :(

[unintendedfairytale]

when imported the video file, its all white? WHY?

[DriftingTube]

@berryland6184 maybe it's wrong file exemple: (.wmv) photoshop just allow (.MOV) (.AVI) (.MPG) and (.MPEG)

[segideon]

how did that bar appear at the bottom i dont have that

[abeautifuliee]

where did u download this program?

[Giesji]

@abeautifuliee Its Photoshop. It can be downloaded for a 30 day trial for free, at adobe.com

[lyricsforidiots]

Anybody know how to make the gif black and white? when i click on it nothing happens.

[noelmsp007]

I keep getting "Could not complete the video frames to layrs command because Quicktime version 7.1 or later is required," and I have QuickTime 7.1.6.

Help!!

[chanelhallqwist]

@noelmsp007 Same here!! What to do?

[mangavictory]

@noelmsp007  I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM!!!!

[MyChemParamore]

Mine just goes black and the frames don't show up at the bottom..?

[nnprecious13]

Your video is white because it's an AVI file (video) It's supposed to be MP4.

[lightzter]

what program do you use to download videos?

[swall0wedinthesea]

@Partiequeenbaybee just download the free trial of CS5 and then google serial numbers

[teh1337storm]

@Partiequeenbaybee piratebay(.)org, are you retarded?

[HMelloWUP]

Hey, in my cs5 the "Save for Web and Devices" is "grey". And I asked someone else about this, they told me to do this: "Image>Mode>8 Bits/Channel", but it was already in 8bits/Channel. Can you help me? Thank you.

[HGM6Barca]

I have the 64 bit version, I don't know what to do! How can I get the 32-bit version?

[KanuttePIKK]

All you guys who complain the GIF is too large;

CTRL + ALT + I

[xfuckinghoreur]

whenever i finish making my gif and upload to tumblr, it freezes. How do I fix this?

[helloimjaden]

@xfuckinghoreur happened to me all the time. The gif is too big. It's got to be way smaller to work on the dash.

[BabyTaeminLove]

@xfuckinghoreur it has to be no more than 500kb, cause then it becomes a still picture on tumblr >_< thats one of tumblrs down sides

[bluecandytrain]

@xfuckinghoreur I have this same problem. It'll loop 4 times and then freeze. HELP US. >.<

[heckawesome]

@xfuckinghoreur Upload to Tinypic, then use the url.

[Zatotan]

@xfuckinghoreur You have to make it under 500 kb.

[MayanMystica]

@xfuckinghoreur Tumblr has a size limit of 500K and a width limit of 500px :-) scale it down and make sure the size is right and it should work

[tatzymke]

@xfuckinghoreur make sure it's under 500 kb

[Chachaslidewithme]

@xfuckinghoreur The date size is probably over the limit.

[TheKPOPlovah]

@xfuckinghoreur resize it :D. i can do it for you :)

[432cezar]

When i try to import a video it says i need to download quick time but i already have it

[TheYoungPresh]

[OBSantos]

I cant get my video to load either... when I try to import it just says:

"Cannot open file"

[invincibleroad]

When I import the video I do get the window Import Video to Layers but the video in there won't load. It won't show the video, that part is just blank and now I cant cut the video... is there someone who know how to solve this problem? img819.imageshack.us/img819/89­9/kdshfied.png

[shanadoo]

What video format does it have to be because whenever i upload the video onto photoshop, it comes up as a picture still of the video but not the actual video?

[TDLakaDavidLover]

what file do i save my product as if im using a mac. cause i dont have "imagees only"

[linabatman]

i made a gif exactly this way, it's 490 px wide, 4 frames & the original video isn't very hq1 yet it becomes almost 900kb in size when i save it. does anyone know how to fix this?

[lufsus]

Thank you so much for this tutorial! :)

[xxmissxxso]

can you help please ?

when i click on import - video frames to layers, i get an error that says i need quicktime to be able to use this function, but i downloaded quicktime and it still pops up saying the same thing :S

anyone help please !!

thankyou ^^

[xxBambinixx]

@xxmissxxso That is exactly what is happening to me. Can anyone help?

[xxmissxxso]

@xxBambinixx hiya mine works now, just wait for it, it sorts it self out..i just opened it one day and it worked x

[xxBambinixx]

@xxmissxxso Yes it started working a while after I posted that comment. All is good now :)

[mangavictory]

@xxmissxxso same here!!!

[lmutafov]

I expected to see how to reach the time line when I opened this video. Not that I'm complaining, but for anyone that had the same expectations: You can just go and pick the Motion workspace, and from that point on, it's pretty much obvious what you need to do, or just watch the video to find out. :)

[thirteenyearsliving]

@jannesaJMidol Make sure your gif image's size is less than 500kb. In tumblr, if your gif image is more than 500kb, it won't move.

[fragilesdreams]

hey how to delete some layers?

i can't select it

[UnitedBeliebers]

when i try to click, inport videos from layers, it says i need quicktime version 7.1?!

[Xalki64]

Hi, Thanks for the video and the updated one with voice. VERY helpful and good but can you please tell me what music you were playing in the 1st one, it's beautiful.

[eminemland]

can i change my 64 bit to 32 ?

[xavierp0nce]

It says I have the 64bit version.. ugh what

[entyne0529]

when i import my video, the layers are all white... nothing can be seen...

what do you think is wrong with this???

[caseyausherman]

@entyne0529 I've had the same issue before. Try converting your video to a different video type. I have to convert mine to mpg.

[entyne0529]

@caseyausherman thanks! it's working now!

[caseyausherman]

@entyne0529 No problem. (:

[jesssssica123]

how do i delete frames more than one at a time?

[AsianRawrs]

it says its not the right document how do I fix this ?

[RobotStrut]

I'm having the same problem as @itsmdc. It always comes out tiny. How do I fix this?

[mayugarobert]

WOW CAN I MAKE MY ANIMATION BAR... a FRAMES base rather than a TIMELINE???

[Lapekachu2]

As promised a tutorial with voice instructions

watch?v=BRbQek17Hhs

[itsmdc]

whenever i import the video into photoshop, it always comes out as 320x240 pixels...how can I make it come into photoshop but BIGGER?

[jacquette26]

Now how do you add the text

[jeZi112]

how did you select loads of frames at once?

[MoeYuki1030]

[Treydizzle]

the title should be "How to make a GIFs FROM VIDEO using Photoshop CS5"

[wongteikmun]

0:34 You're pretty persistent !!

Such quality for Naruto Shippuden !!

Where did u get it ?

[Blobbie97]

how do you do that thing where you select loads of frames at once.

[tommycoolcat]

i have videos and it won't let me open them? why is that , help!!

& this is the 32 bit version, the video is just shaded gray .

[therealravo]

@tommycoolcat convert them to MP4s

[longpause360]

ya it needs a little more instruction, the voiceover will help a lot

[shangimen]

Why the fuck i cant use it with the 64 version?! How do I get the 32?

[iBroadwayBlondie]

When I try to make a gif, the animation frames are all just white. Why isn't my video showing up?

[justCallMeSil]

@iBroadwayBlondie yeah same here, it's so frustrating!

[17hyunA]

@justCallMeSil maybe ur video is flv.. u should convert it into mp4

[justCallMeSil]

@17hyunA Thanks! I did that but when i go to export the video frames on PS, the video doesn't show up when i go to search for it, only the .avi ones do 0_o

[monkeytennis2011]

@iBroadwayBlondie convert your vids to .mov or .mp4

[missmaioka]

@iBroadwayBlondie i had the same problem but i figured it out ...you should use a mov video otherwise it ill give ya the white layers

[TheFluglehorn]

@iBroadwayBlondie it has to be mpeg, mov or i think mp4 format.. you have to convert the video first.

[darkwoodscircus]

@iBroadwayBlondie

Wrong format~

[HeyHiHelloHard]

@iBroadwayBlondie that used to happen to me either.try converting the videos to .MP4 or .MOV

[mackitybaby08]

Why is it that when I upload it to tumblr it doesn't move?

[MusicalMadElzEfron]

@mackitybaby08 Tumblr has a weird gif limit...300mb or something.

[KATEONLYKATEORLY]

When I set up the video, and the frames and everything and click OK, only 1 picture comes up, and not a whole row along the bottom like you have. What did I do wrong?

[ItstheJC]

WHAT PHOTO FORMAT????

[Drumtariano]

@ItstheJC .gif is best

[HallowedSoldier]

32-bit is wimpy. Move on people!

[saw486]

Can you make a gif animation using pictures?

[carmmy24]

where can I get the 32-bit version of photoshop? I mean, how will I know if it's the 32-bit version? please reply.

[mthfckooo9]

why is it when I load .avi files all it shows is a blank screen?!

[igordfaria]

Thx guy! :D

[frostisaghost]

wakkadattebayo !

[hypercon64]

My animation is fucked up...

[woahitsgabby]

i have a mac, and i can't do this in .avi how can i convert it to a .mov? the software i search for are all sketchy.
