Description From the very moment I learned how logs work I wanted to make an animation to show the way that I think about it when converting back and forth between exponential form and log form.

What software & settings did you use to create this?
Looks so Fluid!

I just used Photoshop cs4. I don't own the program, but I get to use it at school whenever I don't have a class. So one day I messed around with the animation tools. You go to window and select "animation" and a timeline pops up at the bottom of the screen. Then I found an option somewhere that allows you to treat layers as frames. so each layer in the file was one frame of the animation. That's how I animate in my Photoshop Elements 7 at home here, is by making the layers work as frames. For this animation, I typed up all of the characters, moved each character a certain number of pixels, copied the previous frame, moved each character again with the arrow keys. I don't know if you were looking for this much information, but here you go! Feel free to ask questions

By moving each layer by 3-5 pixels in 44 frames = Pure Fluency!

I must be very honest, there are signs here of better things to come;
[link] Some Awesome ideas, too!

Thanks for sharing your time to explain, Kind Gentleman!

I wish that someone had shown me this, but I had to teach myself the easy way to convert it back and forth.
