Photoshop :: ImageReady - Animation, How To Save As .gif?
Aug 21, 2005
I've opened up a file to which i produced the other night. Through scaling down a jpeg image to a suitable size to be used as an avatar on a website, i've made 51 frames. Now before i used to save any animations via 'Save Optimized As...' then select the .gif option. The problem is, when i now go to save my file as an animation, it does not give me the option to save as .gif . The choices i have are something like .jpg / .htm or both. Also, before the save file dialog box pops up i have a message stating something along the lines of 'jpegs etc etc are not compatible with animations' or something? I've never seen this message before and have also created animated .gif files from a jpeg file in the past...
I have some text in one animation frame and in another frame it's supposed to move and get smaller. The problem is, when I adjust the size of the text (smaller) in the second frame to tween it later, the text size in the first frame gets smaller as well. I hope I make sense. Is it possible to tween text and make it get smaller in imageready?
I have a full version of PS, I have a few questions. Seeing as how I now have a full version, I have ImageReady as well. I was following a simple tutorial to get aquainted with IR and came upon a problem. How do I have an un-animated piece of text above a fading section? I know how to do fading text, but not how to apply the tween to only one section of the image.
I'm trying to add sound to an animation. I read an old thread on these forums saying that you'd need to turn it into an .avi... How would I go about converting it to such a file and syncing a sound file to it?
Is there a way that I can create a transparent animation with ImageReady without it leaving a large white halo around it?
I create transparent animations with drop shadows; however, when I finish the job in ImageReady and then save it will create a white halo around it. No, I do not mean fringe. I mean a large white halo.
From the looks of it, it is as if the program can not create a image with a drop shadow with out a background to project it on. Any time that I create a transparent image with a drop shadow, it will always create that white halo.
Here is an example. However, if the board has the white background it will not be a visabel problem. This is a sig for another forum that I belong to.
I've created a picture in photoshop and then switched it to image ready. What i'm trying to do, is rotate the picture in a full circle....but whenever i try to change the angle of the picture, it rotates all of the frames not just the one i'm working in. I'm new to imageready and i think ive gotten beyond my capabilities, i played w/ actions, but don't really understand those either. Can anyone help me figure this out?
I did a lot of animation in p7 when I had it but then my company upgraded my photoshop to cs2.
I have looked at EVERY freakin tutorial under the sun and it tells me to save it as a .gif file under the SAVE FOR WEB part. I have tried that. I have tried saving it in ImageReady like I did in p7. I have tried EVERYTHING but for some reason, it won't save my animation. It flattens it and saves only the first slide of it.
I have missed a good 3 deadlines because of it and I seriously get a migraine from trying to figure this out...
Maybe its just one little thing I missed or a button or SOMETHING. Its only on my work computer. I don't have cs2 at home I only have p7 but I can't take my work home any more.
My content management system will only allow jpgs for this particular section of my site that I'm working in. I have PS CS5 Extended and I already created my animation (basically just a slideshow) and now I need to save it as a .jpg.I tried doing Save for web and devices, selecting GIF as the format and then changing it to a jpg extension. This preserves the animation and also gives it the file type that I need. However the gif image quality is awful.
It looks like my FG map is tiling. I have a 12 frame animation for a flash file. The camera doesn't move, but 2 objects in the scene do move. It seemed to start when I tryed to save a FG map for the animation.
When I try to export my gif the only options are help, export, and cancel. There is no box that says 'save as animation'. I've checked GIMP 2libgimp2.0plug-ins for file-gif-save and file-gif-load and they are both there. I've reinstalled gimp as well.
I have some experience using GIMP but I have just completed my first animation for my wedding invitation.
I have used GAP and am happy with the Playback and am ready to export to gif - something I have successfully done before in smaller images.
However, when I export to/save as gif, only the frame I have open at the time is exporting, not the whole animation. I have tried this on my two different systems - using GIMP 2.8.6 on Windows and 2.8.12 (I think) on Ubuntu but I am still stuck.
I'm not sure what information is relevant but I believe my frames are named correctly (000001.xcf - 000268.xcf) and as I said, the playback is working exactly as I want it to. Just not the gif!
I'm using MassFx in 2013 64bit. When I apply any rigid body modifier to an object it looks fine but after I save and reload the .max file the scale & position of the rigid body is wrong. This seems random, I've tried switching to CM and Meters etc, nothing seems to fix it.
In the Picture u see a spline (with and witouht render-mesh). I want to animate the deformation of the Spline/Vertices, without assigning each vertex to a keyframe.
First i thought i can do this via the Morpher-Modificator, but the animation happening there was not the one i was looking for.
Is there a chance to rig/save the Vertex-Coordinates to a Manipulator. So i can easily go from Shape1 over Shape2 to Shape3?
I just installed the latest 2013.5 Extension release. When trying to perform a load saved weights from the Muscle menu, I receive the following error when switching the Load By type to World Pos.
// Error: file: C:/Program Files/Autodesk/Maya2013.5/scripts/muscle/cMuscleSaveWeights.mel line 663: Object 'tfTol' not found. //
how I changed the background on an animated gif, from white to transparent, on all frames, at one time. I did do that using ImageReady, didn't I? I must be having a major senior moment.....
i am trying to make a website with imageready, and i have the animations saved, but it wont let me optimize it (in the box) so then it automatically makes it a jpg, and i cant find a way to get it to a .gif.. because i want the animations.
I just started working with Photoshop and IR CS2 recently, migrating from PS 7. I am working on an image in photoshop and I want to jump to IR to add some rollover buttons. When I jump to IR and preview my work in IE or firefox, or view in the optimized view, it moves my images. It looks the way it should in normal view, but in the show optimized view things are moved. Why does it move the images? It seems in PS7 IR and PS worked more harmoniously. What has changed?
I was working on an image, and I wanted rollovers. I finished those up and went to save it [Save Optimized As...] and realized it was saving the images as .gif files. That's no good; it's a large image that looks terrible in .gif format.
I have been trying for quite some time now to get it to save as a 100% Quality, 0 Blur .jpg, I know I've done it before, and now it isn't working. As far as I can get is 60% [High; I want Maximum].
i have a pretty noob question, how do u make button rollovers for a website through photoshop/imageready? once my layouts are sliced, how is it possible to make rollovers? do i have to use dreamweaver? (i.e.- navigation text underlined when mouse is over it..) something basic as to that.
When I try to import/open an avi file in ImageReady, the import/open window comes up but then another window pops up telling me that quicktime does not have the plugins required to import the file and the plugins are not available on the quicktime server, when i proceed to import/open the image turns blank. I tried updating my quicktime, I updated image ready.
I have been looking but can't seem to find a good tutorial on how I can create a website using Photoshop and Dreamweaver. Anyone know of any good ones? I see talk of using ImageReady...anyone know of a good tutorial on how to do this as well?
i created 3 frames of a pic, but when i edit like the 2nd frame all 3 frames change. how can i get it so i can make each frame individual. and, is there a way to change a lens flare color?
