MTV2 Posted October 11, 2004 Posted October 11, 2004 How do you make those animated avatars?? Adam G., how did you make yours?
TheOutrider Posted October 11, 2004 Posted October 11, 2004 You use adobe imageready and please post something like this in the avatars/requests thread in yodas swamp
MTV2 Posted October 11, 2004 Author Posted October 11, 2004 Ya, but Yodas Swamp is way over there somewhere, lost in all those forums:(
*Yoinked* Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 I had Astrotoy7 make it for me, he made Evil Dark Jedi's as well, sort of as a early christmas present to celabrate the release of the original trilogy revamped, he is making ones from the ot for free, all I did was pm him about what I wanted, and Yoda's Swamp is not lost, neither is the STUCK avatar thread.... -Adam G.
Hannibal Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 TheRealJedidude, everyone doesn't browse all the forums. Next time giving a link would help. MTV2 your more likely to get real help in the forum TheRealJedidude told you about. BTW- Do you really like MTV2? I don't like it that much. Just wondering.
Sivy Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 Adam G's avatar was made by taking screencaps from the star wars dvd. all you do is use the 'printscrn' key and then paste the frames into a gif making program. i use animation shop, which comes with paintshop pro. here are some i made... these were made using the same method as above, only i made them from trailers. another good program is gif movie gear, which you can download from http://www.moviegear.com gif making programs are very similar to one another, and they are quite easy to use.

Sivy Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 yeah, you pause it, take a screenshot, paste it, then you forward it by a frame. then take another screenshot, paste it. and you keep doing that until you have all the frames you need. then you just cut them down to size and save it as a gif.

Sivy Posted October 14, 2004 Posted October 14, 2004 in windows media player you can't, you'll just have to be quick with the play/pause button. quicktime is good as it has a frame advance button and a frame back button.

MTV2 Posted October 14, 2004 Author Posted October 14, 2004 Originally posted by Hannibal I like MTV just not MTV2(that second channel they have). Anyway, I was just wondering. I like them both, there both alright, but I like MTV better

Are you giving them out to people that want them? I want to make my own though just wondering cuz it seems like alot of people are asking
