Wouldn't it be easier to use the "Make Frames from Layers" function in ImageReady?

Wishes-NL In reply to larnsgr [2008-11-01 13:03:24 +0000 UTC]

Hii, must have missed your comment, didn't know there was such a function. I made this ages ago, so it is outdated with my general software knowledge today. But I never used imageready again hehe

Joserin In reply to Wishes-NL [2007-07-08 04:49:57 +0000 UTC]

i did everything you said and saved it as a gif but when I look at it its not animated

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Wishes-NL In reply to Joserin [2007-07-08 11:49:27 +0000 UTC]

You should look at it in a programm that can show animated gifs. Some programms aren't able tot do that. Windows image and fax viewer can do it, but Adobe Photoshop can't (for example)

Joserin In reply to Wishes-NL [2007-07-08 23:35:54 +0000 UTC]

Wishes-NL In reply to Joserin [2007-07-09 08:00:53 +0000 UTC]

I have no idea, never tried that. Maybe it's to big, maybe something else is wrong. I dunno. Try uploading it to DA and see if it works
