May I ask if this amazing strategy would work in GIMP?

SophieHoulden In reply to Yelof [2009-06-02 16:29:35 +0000 UTC]

I'm afraid I dont know, it should be possible but the gimp interface always drives me nuts so I've never been in deep enough to find out

sweet emote tutorial =]

just so you know, this isnt fireworks cs3, its fireworks 8...

open up flash CS3, and mostly any other CS3 version (eg. illustrator CS3) the layout for the CS3 programs is now greyscale, unless ur using bridge or something like that...

but if youve changed the layout, by coding or something to make it look like version 8, could you please tell me where you got it from??

thx for the help and your time...

Shweet; I've been looking around for something like this! My emotes have seemed so much flatter compared to some of the Emoti-vets! Hopefully this'll breathe some more life into them.

Thanks much for the tutorial!

I wasnt going to comment on this.
But when I went to close it I pressed the 'x' in the flash.
I found it hilarious.
