Animated Avatar Assistance
Archive: 17 posts
| I don't have any money to get a program to animate gif's, but I would like an animated avatar, since I recently gotten the basic upgrade. (Hooray!) If anyone could help, I would like it to be the picture Zim drew of me (http://i37.tinypic.com/30vf8ti.jpg) but with a moving cape. I would be able to give thanks or xp in return, whichever you would like. Also, the avatar version is here (http://i34.tinypic.com/2d0xfs6.jpg). Please get the zim invader's signature off of there, as there have been problems shrinking it down before. | 2010-09-01 15:37:00 Author: Super_Dork_42  Posts: 1874 |
| I believe GIMP (http://www.gimp.org/) can help you if you don't have the money. It's a free program and it's quite useful. | 2010-09-01 16:06:00 Author: siberian_ninja15  Posts: 444 |
| Ok, but how do I ANIMATE it? I have GIMP, but haven't used it much. Can someone who has used a zim drawing for an animated gif please tell me? I just want the cape to flow in the wind, you know? | 2010-09-01 18:40:00 Author: Super_Dork_42 Posts: 1874 |
| download a free program called "UnFreez" all you have to do is drag .gif image files into the program and give it a name its really easy | 2010-09-02 02:01:00 Author: Skalio-  Posts: 920 |
| Woudlnt you have to draw each frame of the wind moving it? Which I estimate around 3-4 Frames at least | 2010-09-02 02:04:00 Author: Unknown User  |
| Woudlnt you have to draw each frame of the wind moving it? Which I estimate around 3-4 Frames at least Exactly why I haven't done it yet, I don't think I can just start with one frame and make it animated. Plus, I was thinking 10 frames, so it looks smooth to the eye. | 2010-09-02 02:44:00 Author: Super_Dork_42 Posts: 1874 |
| You can probably ask TheZimInvader to do it but unless she is very nice your going to probably give some xp. | 2010-09-02 04:54:00 Author: Unknown User |
| I was hoping someone else could, as she is so buzy and deserves a break after all she has done for us, but I guess it never hurts to ask. | 2010-09-02 16:25:00 Author: Super_Dork_42 Posts: 1874 |
| I would happily do it, but the cape happens to be coloured quite complexly (is that a word?). It would be quite a challenge. | 2010-09-02 17:46:00 Author: TehUberZac  Posts: 587 |
| I'm not sure this would be too tricky... 25 frames per second - so 25 frames... The cape could be cut out as a separate layer and then use liquid filter to play with it for each frame... 15 minute job I reckon. Or do it in Flash and tween the image between two points and then save as gif. Rhy | 2010-09-03 00:11:00 Author: Rhyfelwr  Posts: 606 |
| Would you be up to the challenge then, rhy? Just so as not to put any pressuer on anyone, I am not going to be on here for at last a week, since my brother is getting married, so If someone wants to try, go for it. | 2010-09-03 03:45:00 Author: Super_Dork_42 Posts: 1874 |
| Yeah OK - give me a bit. I would have prefered to do it in Flash but I don't have it at home. I take it you can now have 125x125 right? I'll have a go in PS tonight. Rhy EDIT------------------- OK - took a while longer than expected but how about this? Only 20 frames but it was pretty smooth with that. http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j120/richergraphics/SDanim125x125.gif Rhy | 2010-09-04 17:47:00 Author: Rhyfelwr Posts: 606 |
| Is there a way to shrink it down to what is allowed on my profile? It went up from 100x100 to '110 by 110 pixels or 19.5 KB (whichever is smaller),' so that is a little big. | 2010-09-08 23:02:00 Author: Super_Dork_42 Posts: 1874 |
| It's actually 125x125.... and I thought you might have that upgrade (same as mine). I will reduce it down for you tomorrow. Due to the lack of enthusiasm, I take it you're not keen? Rhy | 2010-09-09 00:36:00 Author: Rhyfelwr Posts: 606 |
| No, it's great. I just want to use it, that's all. Thanks so much. | 2010-09-09 05:00:00 Author: Super_Dork_42 Posts: 1874 |
| Done - sorry for the delay! http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j120/richergraphics/SDanim110x110.gif Rhy | 2010-09-12 23:13:00 Author: Rhyfelwr Posts: 606 |
| Holy moley, That's awesome! Thanks. | 2010-09-13 09:08:00 Author: Super_Dork_42 Posts: 1874 |
