(on the last part, i ment to say upload TO youtube, not THE youtube. lol.)
This is a tutorial for pivot 2.2.5 ONLY. Please check which version you have. Pivot 3 is much different and more complicated in .gif saving (needed to edit). I suggest, if you have pivot 3 beta, to instead get pivot 2.2.5. 2.2.5 does not have some features that pivot 3 does, but it has less glitches and is more reliable that pivot 3 beta.
If you need pivot 2.2.5, I provided the download link below.
If you absolutely NEED pivot 3 beta (ex. to view pivot 3 beta made animations and .stks) then i sugest you get the pivot 3 DD modded version. It's the same as pivot 3 beta, but has been modded to enable the same .gif saving at pivot 2.2.5. I also provided a download for this version.
note: I have all 3 versions (2.2.5, 3 beta, DD modded) so I know what i'm talkin about.

Now, onto the tutorial...

1. Locate and open the pivot animation you wish to edit.

2. If it isnt saved as a .gif, do so.

2b. To save as a .gif, simple save as normal. At the bottom, were it reads "save as type:", to the left should read " pivot file (*.piv)". Click the drop down arrow and choose "Gif (*.gif)". In pivot 3 DD modded it may read "animated gif" It's still the same thing.

2c. Now a box should pop up called "Gif options". Now, here is were memorization comes into play. Unckeck "merge" on the left. Change frame delay to 6. Change shrink frames to 2.

2d. Now the animation will save as a .gif.

3. Next, we must go into windows movie maker (should be already in your computer)

4. Once you find it and click on it, on the side SHOULD(not on some computers) be the words "Capture video" and under it should be 4 more options. We need "import picture"

5. Press import picture and search for the animation that you saved as a .gif.

6. Now you can play around with it and make it cool n stuff.


7. Ok, once your done, you probobly want to upload it to youtube right? All you have to do is go to file, then "save movie file".

8. Once you save it, upload that to youtube.

If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.
