*blushes* Thanks!

Question: how do you work animation? I've only got MS Paint and Adobe Photoshop...

Answer: I have no idea. Vlad did the Draco/Ferret animation, and all I've done is resuse it.

SiriuslyIrish said she uses a program called Coffee Cup Gif Animator or something to that effect. It's cheap-ish, but the free trial download only lasts 15 days. I haven't bothered trying it yet.

I'll have to check it out. I've not worked with .gifs much, but I'd really like to learn how. Seems like you can do more with them (transparency, animation).

Yea, .gifs are a lot better. biggrin.gif

I use Jasc Animation Shop 3 for animating - the only problem with that program is that it doesn't recognise transparency. So my animations must have coloured or picture backgrounds.

I use Adobe Photoshop 7 for graphics - and I absolutely love it! biggrin.gif

I got Animation Shop with Paint Shop Pro (on the same CD) which I got really cheap (it was a pirate version! mua hahaha) and I downloaded Photoshop off the internet (you can even download serial numbers - *evil cackle*).

I'm rather attached to my Coffee Cup, actually. But I cheated, and my free trial download has somehow managed to last 2 months... I'm not sure how that happened.

Anyway, it's good once you get used to using it. It doesn't do anything fun like fading though, you have to mess with it a lot to get it to do that.

I've never been able to do any of the 'animation' stuff....despite the fact that I have the programs to do it! huh.gif

We should have a place where people can suggest these [to use as a signature, or other] and kind hearted people with too much time on their hands could make one for them... tongue.gif

-Ginny who is envious of anyone with a animation, personalized, 'sticker' [what are they called, really?]

There are quite a few talented people on this board... I also noticed that Moony has a "Wand Shop" (they are personalized siggies) over at Virtual Team Quidditch.

So -- anyone care to step up?

I'll step up! biggrin.gif I'd be happy to make graphics for people who request personalise siggys, avatars etc....

Would I have my own board or will people PM me or how will this work?

Go ahead and start up a new topic in this forum, MoonNymph. If anyone has a request for you, or if you just want to make a bunch of stuff and allow members to browse and pick, they do it all in a single topic.
