Wanna create a new avatar but want an animated gif instead of a pic.

Anyone know how to create a multi image animated gif?

i made them befor using adobe flash, IIRC, you can pick what goes on each slide and then save them as a gif. also you can change what speed each one shows up at and how long they stay.

I use PSP AnimShop which comes bundled with PSP5. Its got a few basic editing features, but I find it easier to create each frame in PSP then drop it into Anim.

Oh, gay :(

There are some members who have them, but I guess that could be left over from NL days... mind you, that was still vbulletin, no?

That was the reason why I'd said "admin only" but come to think of it Fester has one.

Something for your next Admin meeting then as some are getting special treatment. lol

lol ok but making one under 19.5k turns out not as great. Hence we wanting to do it properly.
