Question about resizing an animated avitar
 

When I take this GIF to photoshop and resize it fit the 50x50 avitar requirement here I lose the animated feature.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,

I believe you actually have to break out the avatar into all of it's frames and then resize each one. Once you have that accomplished, you put it all together again and ...uh..."Bob's your uncle..."

Something like that.

Okay, that makes sense... thanks Randy

Now I just have to figure out how to take the thing apart... darn I might have to use my brain... is this going to hurt?

I'm not a PhotoShop guy, but I know PaintShop Pro used to be able to do this. Used to be able to download PSP from downloads.com. Thier .GIF editor looked pretty easy to use, IIRC.

hope this work, I used Fireworks. don't break up the frames, too much work. how small you want it across?

ha ha - it worked

Well there you go, Scottman!

Nice job, on-ramp! :D

Fireworks, eh? I'm thinking it may be time to change the ol' avatar...

Randy

Can you add syncronized sound?

In photoshop I think you need to bring it into "Image Ready"

There's other software that will crop, resize, and compress the .gif without having to break it apart. I'll take a stab at it a little later for you...

Nice job, Onramp.

Thanks on-ramp...

Once again age and trickery has kept me from doing any real work.

Gaud bless the internet!
