Description If it doesn't load right, hitting refresh then waiting a few seconds might work.

Visually, it sucks. But it gets its point across. (hopefully)

I don't know how to make preloaders, so if it doesn't load right I'm sorry. I spend a whole lot of time on it, and it turned out looking stupid but I hope it's informative. Please tell me about any spelling errors, or if anything has been left out. Oh, and tell me if everything makes sense, or if it's impossible to understand. I'm sorry about the places where the text and images get fuzzy, I don't know how to fix it. I really don't know that much about flash. At all. So if nothing else, at least I got some practice.

btw, in case you're wondering about all "teh awesom" fonts, I got them at DA font, which is a cool site for free fonts . I like sitting there and looking for the swirly ones.

oh, I forgot, if you want a trial of Ulead Gif Animator 5 you can get it Here

Hi, great tutorial The only thing I would say is that it should have a preloader (PM me if you want help with making one) because it comes up before it's finished loading all the way, which means lag in the actual tutorial part. Thanks for making it!

How do you get the transparent background?

darkmoon3636 In reply to SuperDocious007 [2006-09-05 18:49:54 +0000 UTC]

Just by having no object (like the white one that's there when you start) behind the emote.

That was really helpful. I have Ulead Gif animator5, so that made it even easier to understand.

I've done animations before, but I always used MSpaint and then just opened it with Gif, this seems a lot easier.
The only problem I have, is with shading.
