Paw's .gif dump

• starpaw7 wrote on 2011-09-14 04:16
  Here is a collection of my practices on making .gifs - these are literally the first tries, so I did simple video clips with or without a solid border to become accustomed to the sometimes-long process:
  
  
  [COLOR="red"]Note that I have not drawn any of these following .gifs [SIZE="1"](unless specified, which probably won't happen in months to years oh tee el.)[/SIZE]
  
  I'm surprised that so far the below is the only avatar I made

  About a month ago I was without Internet for weeks, so I decided to practice (and use up my time of boredom) while watching the only show I downloaded on my computer.
  Thank goodness I had all of this to watch * =*

  Now personal; I started back the habit of animating scenes I see on and off the internet

  Maybe I'll add more, when I do create new ones :what:
  
  
  Ah, and; If anyone wants a scene animated, and provides the video (or a link) and the dimensions, I will gladly do so if it's not too long

  Everything I learned is → here ←
  
  That "XviD4PSP 5.0" program was a pain in the tush to finally get working - it didn't even work as it did in the tutorial Tasha showed because I had to download so many other programs for it :stress:
  
  So I actually use 2 video programs ("Avidemux 2.5 (32-bit)" to delete most of the frames then XviD4PSP 5.0 to encode into a PS-compatible format) then do I go to Photoshop to start deleting the many copies of single frames and animate.
  
  I don't follow Paul's tutorial, but I use it for advice (such as how I learned to crop, and maybe later on go into fading)

  You got some serious talent there. It's like an art. A very delicate art. Your ideas are nice and fresh and unique. Especially the shadow like animations you got going there. You should be a graphic artist.

  Your signature is my personal favorite.
  I want to steal it. :whoops:

  Thank you, and to all of you too

  I do have many of my ideas, but it is rather aggravating to not have the current skills or practice to draw them the way I want them to
  I'll have to kick myself to practice more.
  
  For now, I am glad I know how to use CS3 to at least animate them whenever I can write :gloom3:

  Oh my, I did not draw these, I only animated these scenes from other creations into .gifs and added little kinks such as the borderline , and occasionally color in to remove text
  
  Whenever I feel that I like something, I enjoy making them into .gifs reformatted into signature or avatar use - the last three were more personal to how I am feeling now, too
  
  I apologize for any misunderstandings :stress:

  That new one's kinda creepy.
  :scare:

  Your first post makes it seem like you drew the silhouettes. You should probably clarify that.
  
  EDIT:
  For anyone curious about the original.

  A bit :imdead:
  
  Most of the flash games I do like are more abstract, those tend to be that way

  I planned on it, after I almost spit on screen after what king said
  
  I have wondered whether I should message the artist to ask, but they have already been flooded with messages to the point of just not being able to read every single one of them - and I don't see nor have any malicious intent for these to ask
  
  [SPOILER="Spoiler"]Maybe I should leave the dA group I'm in, since I don't read through the many "Deviant Watches" and end up deleting them :stress:[/SPOILER]

  Thank you both!
  
  To Paul: you do have a dump ton of those, very nice job on the avatars, too
  
  And I ask how exactly to make a white and black border :what:
  
  I try to do it, such as setting white to "Outside" and black to "inside" or "center", but the first one seems to overlap the second

  As do you :awesome:
  
  I am so glad I have those downloaded on my computer - those really saved my boredom with no internet for almost a week at a time
  
  Lots of animations from there, I would like to make so many from that show :blood:
