[Can you use animated .GIF on PDN?]

I don't think you understand what an incredibly difficult thing you're asking for. Such a program doesn't exist, to my knowledge- but it can be done manually.

actually i have found a program that does it. and it works great. you just put in the file and select the part of the video you want for the .GIF and then you hit create avatar and you got an animated .GIF out of a video file . It's called Video Avatar.

Can you use an animated .GIF in PDN? cuase i was thinking of making a sig with one in my sig. but could i do that?

[Can you use animated .GIF on PDN?]

There's a tutorial here [ link ] that explains how to use UnFreez, another free program, to create an animation out of a string of images. You can use Paint.NET (any graphics program would work, but this is the PDN forum after all :wink:) to create the frames for the animation.

thanks for the link it has been very helpful so far. does anyone know what programs to use when i want to convert video images(mp4, etc.) into an animated .gif?

[Can you use animated .GIF on PDN?]

sorry bout that i fixed the title. i am new to the whole computer scene so i'm not too fond with computer programs. do you know what some of the better programs are to animate videos into .GIF?

i am interested in embedding a video into my sig but wasnt sure how i could do it. cuz i've seen a lot of people have em before.

[Can you use animated .GIF on PDN?]

Hey i've been playing with PDN and all the plugins, fonts etc. for about 3 months now. But i was wondering, Can you convert video to animated GIF using PDN? If no does anyone know how to do it then input it into a photo in PDN? I have searched around for a while but have found virtually nothing.

Thanks for any help,

Marc
