Dragon Posted December 7, 2004 Report Share Posted December 7, 2004 I use the gimp myself, but have yet to figure out how to make avatars and animations with it. the online tutorials I have found are somewhat useful, but yet on the other hand have a tendency to get technical. of course if could be me. I'm a computer geek, but on certain things I can be a computer idiot.Any help would be grateful. I really want to make a new avatar and actually feel like I made it.

jcl Posted December 7, 2004 Report Share Posted December 7, 2004 Any help would be grateful. I really want to make a new avatar and actually feel like I made it.For animations I would use the GIMP (or whatever) to create the frames as separate images and then use ImageMagick to produce the animation like so. Not the easiest way to do it, but not the most difficult either. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nerelda Posted December 8, 2004 Report Share Posted December 8, 2004 Agreed. I've tried both, but I liked the GIMP better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
