OMG - it feels like Christmas with all these goodies - thank you developers one and all
. Thank you @EER for your work and devotion in keeping us informed every month
EDIT: FYI - The Feather Object link at the beginning of BoltBait's info goes to the wrong link
-
Argh! Midora - you are brilliant and obviously did not flunk math
. Now I will have to try to get MY head around all these (60) layers and to work out some sequences too. I will be Baaaaaaaack - I hope ................

I hope you don't mind @Gooney, but I played a bit with Midora's steps and came up with this:
And these were the steps:
- EDIT - Removed steps as requested by Midora - see his comment below!
I can't get enough of this Plugin - I have to confess I played with it all weekend
. -
Very, very nice @Red - you have such amazing talent in putting these Escher-like pictures together which are so appealing
. -
You can always use the Feather Plugin if your lines are not too narrow.
P.S. You know that God spelled backwards is Dog
. -
That's really cool @Gooney - it looks so real
-
Very nice update and I too like that the last played gif plays automatically upon opening Annimate It.
Again, I also look forward to the water reflection effect.
I couldn't resist playing again ..... this time with Yellowman's water drops!
And ............ some birdies

Oh WoW! The Amp is stupendous @Gooney
. You really did a great job on the tutorial into PDN. Jolly well done - it was certainly worth the obvious effort you gave to the end result. What a team - with Racerx doing the animation. Fantastic job fellers
. -
@Seerose - what a beautiful flower you made with the colors changing too
@Racerx - Thanks for the compliment, but you are so much more cognizant (as is, of course @Midora) of how the settings work, that another one or two tutorials will not go amiss
. -
Johnny - if you read the instructions in the Zipped File - Read Me Text - it says to put them into Effects Folder:
| Installation
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Follow the instructions carefully
- Unzip "AnimateIt.Effect vX.X.zip"
- Copy the two files AnimateIt.Effect.dll/.dlc to the Paint.NET\Effects\
folder
After a restart of Paint.NET you will find the plugin at
Menu->Effects->Tools->Animate It...
oder für deutsche Anwender unter
Menu->Effekte->Werkzeuge->Animiere es... ;-) -
I dont have animate it..whats that?If its only for pdn4 I am out of luck.
- This also works in 3.5.11. You have to download the Plugins - it's high lighted in blue at the top of the tutorial. You can read the instructions on the page where Midora's Plugin is situated.
Basically, there are two Plugins. One to make the animation and the second to view the animation.
-
Thanks for taking the time to set this up Pixey. I guess we will need and maybe get more of these tutorials in the future.
But you put pressure on me to get this filetype out of the developer zone ;-)
I hope I didn't cause you any problems Midora
. In hindsight, I should have asked you first if it was OK to do this. -

This tutorial is available as a PDF. Click here to view or download it
Plugin used: Midora's Plugin Animate
1. Open PDN and start to add the layers. I used a canvas size of 333 x 275 pixels for this example.
2. For a moving object you will need to change the position slightly on each layer. To do this, first draw or add your image. Then Copy & Paste. Add to a new layer and move it slightly. Keep on going until you have the desired layers.
3. The settings for the layers are available in @midora's Read Me in his Plugin.
i.e. For the Background you can name it, then the settings follow //
1. Background would be; bouncy ball // Background
2. Next layer will have the speed; i.e. // 80ms
4. Then, when you are finished and ready to animate, go to Save As and choose the setting for AGIF - GIF Animations and Images
5. Close PDN after saving.
6. To view your wonderful movie, open PDN again and go to Tools – Animate It and navigate to where you saved your movie.
Note: If you have updated to @Midora's 'Look At It' on 16th April, 2015, it will now look like this:
7. Save your .agif and then upload it to Imgur or Photobucket and copy the URL for posting on the forum.
For Water
1. Cut out a piece of water from a picture for the Background layer and call it that after the slashes //
2. Copy and paste into a new layer and with the rectangle tool pull the nubs slightly to stretch it. Mark the 2nd layer with the time of // 60ms.
3. Continue as above and stretch again.
4. Make a few layers as above.
5. Follow step 4 in above bouncy ball to finish.
