UnicornReality — Emote Tutorial for Fireworks

Description A few (crazy) people requested I made a tutorial to tell them how I make my little emotes and such.
Now I will confess I am no expert - I probably do it a long winded way and make it even more complicated - but that's how it works for me!

I use Fireworks - if you don't have it you can download a trial version to see if it suits you.

The emote made in this can be found here

Go on - give it a go and show me what you've made.

I love the program. Thanks for showing it to us. Also, that was a very simple and quick way to draw emotes. Too bad I was almost done with the face when a big storm pulled in. I got to save it though; that's good. I finished this morning after the storm.

I tryed to use ur tutorial but it did not work! I got up to this part: "further along you 'roperties' bar ou will find the outline options. These need to be changed to '1'-hard line now your emote should look alot better" After that It went all weird, the outline of the blob went thick and weird. I tryed it again, and again, and again. but it did not work I failed

A vastly outdated and really buggy copy of Ulead GIF Animator 5 - it came free with my web hosting package and I'm too stingy to pay for anything new

According to the help menu, it's 17 year-old software
