dana Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Is there any way to animate without creating and saving each individual frame of a graphic? I am currently using unFREEz to animate and I made my avatar by creating each separate frame, making the arm move a little bit each time. Is there a quicker way than that? Because I've been some really complex animated graphics made by Paint.NET users, and it doesn't look like they did that. It looks like a movie, like there were no frames involved. Any help?

BoltBait Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Well, for using Paint.net, yeah, you're pretty much stuck with using a gif animator (unFREEz, etc). You could try other programs that are designed for creating animations, such as Flash. Good luck!

dana Posted January 16, 2007 Author Share Posted January 16, 2007 Thanks... So, I understand that if you want a professional-looking animated graphic, you have to create and save every time, frame by frame, little by little, even though it takes forever.. XP lol. But, say I wanted to make an animated graphic with Paint.NET and use unFREEz, how would I do something such as fade text out or in? I don't know how to do that frame by frame.

BuzzKill Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Try adjusting the opacity of the layer you want to fade little by little, saving each time.

Rick Brewster Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 wat's the point of PhotoShop when u have Paint.Net??? (don't tell me that photoshop can do better things) it can't...Infact, if u put the plug-ins, then i think that Paint.Net would be better.

usedHONDA Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Photoshop and PDN is a good combination. One is a massive program. One is a couple of megabytes. One is packed with effects. One has the potential to do that too. One has clouds. One has clouds [and blending modes]. One does vectors. One does cursors and icons [plugin]. One costs money. One is free unless you get Sharp Paint Pro by Mysterious Michal. It all depends on how you look at it Quote "The greatest thing about the Internet is that you can write anything you want and give it a false source." ~Ezra Pound twtr | dA | tmblr | yt | fb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
