Description
FULL VIEW.EDIT
When you're finished with your animation and want to display it on the internet, select "Save Optimized As" from the ImageReady file menu. That will save it as an animated .gif
How I animate with ImageReady
I had my mom(great editor, she is
) look at it and she says she thinks she could make an animation, so I think it's probably pretty understandable now

Hi, i made something too, but the problem is, when i saved it as a .gif, and then open it with windows viewer, it does play. But not at the good speed >.<. Please help me ^^.

It might be because the individual frame file sizes are too big. I've noticed that large animations tend to move slowly in the windows picture viewer thing. ^^'

Thank you for the tutorial! it helped me out a lot! But, i have a question, that maybe it's because i'm a complete novice at photoshop- but anyway... you said that after you make the animation if you have time you can color it? But...how? i can't seperate the lines when its in animation format...so i'm lost...*hangs head* i'd really appreciate if you could help me out

Well, I've never actually made a completed animation before, but I'd assume you'd open the .PSD file and just create new layers over the sketch and refine it~

No, that's fine thank you! here's the animation i made from this tutorial: [link] it's not that great, but thank you again!

-coughs-
I was wondering if you could help meeee~
Your steps are very clear, and I love it.
But, I'm trying to make an animation with 83 framses, and going back and forth from PS & IM almost makes my computer die. D:
And, I tryed making the frames into smaller groups [10-20 frames per file] buttt when i go to put them in the animation, they make a new animation, instead of adding onto the old one.
And I tryed copying & pasting frames, but when you paste a frame it goes over all of them. -dies-
So, is there a way to add on other frames from other files?
I guess thats my question. LOL.
Thanks if you can help?

Hmmm... You say when you paste in a frame, it goes over all of them? Make it invisible in the first frame. It should disappear from all of them. Then you can make it visible only for the frame you intended it for. Simple, ne? =3

this is probably the most helpful tutorial that i have found yet. do you think that the process (with some minor alterations granted) would work in flash as well?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm not certain, since I've personally never made anything except for non-animated pictures in flash, but it might. c:

Wow, I never knew ImageReady had any other purpose than to use up hard disk space and put an annoying icon on your start bar that you acidentally click instead of opening photoshop XD;
I shall use this veryvery soon... I want to animate some snowfall D:

Well, whatdayaknow. I did it right yesterday before I had a look at this ^_^ Took me a few mins to do it but I'm having trouble saving my animation. I don't use ImageReady much coz there's no pen tool in it!

May I ask a Question? How do you make the preview page show the animation when you zoom in? I you could answer It would be nice
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You have to upload a preview file + a regular file when you post the animation on devart=3
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
so... can it be jpeg, gif or.. gah @____@
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The animation itself -HAS- to be a .gif, but the preview can be anything=3

Oh...Oh dear, I've never heard of that. xD Well, maybe the technique can be used in other programs. =0 I'm going to try!
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
It comes with Adobe Creative Suite, but I don't know where else you'd get it.o-o;;
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
