Glad you like it! As for my current icon, he's one of my favorite animations despite being one of the simplest one's I've ever done

Would I be able to ask for a design once I've thought of one?

Of course Just send me a note when you've got an idea and we'll go from there. No time restrictions, so no need to rush ^^

they seem so fricking simple but they're so damn effective! Please tell me what appz do u use to make an animated gif? I'd luv to do bits like this from time to time!

NorthboundFox In reply to masterofthenothing [2013-02-02 04:12:10 +0000 UTC]
They do seem simple, but this particular image took me about 3 hours to compile, animate, and optimize. They're small pieces of art, but if you can manage to get though them the feeling of being able to say "I made this" makes it all worth while!
If you'd like to start animating then be sure to check out some of these tutorials over at PSDTuts+ !
As for what tools I use, all I use is Photoshop and a mouse, nothing more :3

That is really cool! How did you make it as an animation?

NorthboundFox In reply to MGartist [2013-02-02 04:23:31 +0000 UTC]
I used Photoshop CS5 to animate this particular image. Although there are many different ways I could have gone about doing this, I use a custom technique that makes use of a mix of layer masks, folders, and layers styles to give me the effects I need. Past that there is lots of custom tweaking to the timing and positioning of each frame that needs to be done as I don't like my animations to have that robotic repetitiveness to them. Sometimes the difference between having a frame be .03s or .04s long can drastically affect the overall feel of the piece.
