Description UPD2: Guys, I really am chuffed that so many people found this tutorial helpful. It came as a total surprise when DA gave me a Daily Deviation for it, and that it has accumulated 55K views. I am surprised and honoured.
However, I think that this tut is now terribly outdated. Hardly anyone uses ImageReady anymore. In this day and age, you can make an animated GIF directly in CS5, online - even in Powerpoint, whatever rocks your boat. If I had time, I could make a CS5 stamp tutorial or something - however, there are some awesome tutorials for that already, so why reinvent the wheel?
I haven't got time to reply to all the comments I get for this deviation, or respond to all the faves - so comments are disabled for now, sorry!
Last but not the least: this tutorial is far from perfect. I don't make stamps anymore. I am a published manga artist, I draw manga and illustrations and do workshops (and have been doing so since 2004, would you believe!). I really am somewhat disappointed that this tutorial got noticed and recognised more than any work that I put my heart and soul into.
So thank you for your interest - and please check out other art in my DA gallery, or on my website www.irinarichards.com.

Thanks! Peace and love all around ^^

UPD: If you're having problems with Step 5, this screenshot might help you: [link]

Wow! Nice tut. I do have one question... How do I shrink a scene or two from a video to fit a stamp? Like this--> but on a stamp. :3

Has anyone managed to find a tutorial about how to make a stamp showing, for example, a clip from a show? That kind of animation?

Plinthe [2012-06-04 23:34:22 +0000 UTC]

Hi! I use photoshop cs3 but it wont give me a option on the optimise panel to save as gif, and I can't export the animation either, any advice?

I'm wondering where I would go to get my layers to automatically show up once I duplicate the first animation layer? I can't seem to find it.

MsRiachuD In reply to chipettegurl13 [2012-02-03 17:24:13 +0000 UTC]

It depends om how much frames you use really, if you use more then ten frames it can take about five minutes.
