Pink Poogle Toy Forum

This is pretty cool. I've seen it in a handful of PPT members' avatars and signatures.

My question is: What program is used for this? And how is it done?\

Thanks ^_^

I use ImageReady for mine, it comes with Photoshop. I know there is one that comes with Paint Shop Pro as well, Animation Shop I think it is called. I'm sure there are some free ones on the internet though.

Robert's right. Animation Shop.

I believe the GIMP also does animation, but don't quote me on that. Glad to see you're back, BTW. ^^

(Unless I've confused you with someone else. That has happened to me before)

I did use animation shop but it was a free trial that has now expired

ill probably buy it soon but yea thats a good one to use

I believe the GIMP does, but you have to download it seperately (it's called the GAP. Gimp Animation Package.).

I'm not entirely certain how it works, however.

(And Sorry DM, I *had* to quote you on that. )

hmmmm I'm pretty sure just gimp does it- i could do it and I don't think I downloaded anything extra like GAP. Oh, and I believe Fireworks works to.

Gimp can do basic animation like fading and blinking, but if you'd like something really slick like this, then you need the GAP.

THANK YOU ZILARY.

Gimp can do some pretty complex animation (without the GAP). I don't know if it is easier or harder than other image programs but I did these two things last winter with Gimp.

Sorry to hijack the topic, but how do you do animation with GIMP? o_o

ummmmm, just make multiple layers, then when it asks you if you want to save it as animation or flatten the image u click animation. At least that is how my version of gimp is. If you have any questions u could pm me?


I used to have only gimp and I HATED it with a PASSION. But then I figured out how to do it and all the tricks... when I had figured that all out we finally got fireworks. so that was a total waste of my time but I know almost all the nooks and cranies of it now, so if u have questions, u know who the gimp expert is. I still fireworks more though...

You can also use Pivot Stick Figure Animator which is completely free. You will have the to join the Pivot MSN group to get the Beta version which allows you to use images in your animations.
You can also use Macromedia Flash which is a 30 day free trial. This one is really great for art! ((Though not as good as programs like Photoshop))
