My First Animated GIF
We’ve broken fresh ground.
I’ve partnered up with someone to do some graphic work, in exchange for some promotion of BADmedia. One thing they want is animated GIFs for their website. I’ve never created animated GIFs so I figured now was a good time to learn. Also, I’m working on a website for BADmedia to get ready to start promoting my business some more. Why not create an animated GIF for the BADmedia site?
I couldn’t live with a simple animated GIF. I wanted something more along the lines of Flash (another web animation I’ve never learned). After reading a bit on the net, I learned you can turn an AVI into an animated GIF. Cool! I dropped a background graphic and some animated text into iMovie HD, exported as an AVI, dumped it into ImageReady and voila! My first animated GIF.
Pretty cool, Andrew! Great job. Visit http://www.excite.com for more animated gif ideas. They have some pretty cool ones.
This one looks really nice.
