Rule #47: Textless openings and closings are for losers and should never be used in a video. If you have to use the opening or closing credits of an anime, use the REAL credits with the TEXT. It looks so much cooler to have writing all over random clips in your video. If it also has subs/karaoke of the English translation of the original credits' song lyrics, that makes your video that much more awesome.

Rule #48: Resized animated gifs make awesome footage for AMVs.

In some cases you gotta do that, especially for when you want that right expression.

Rule# 50- Phailure to abide by rulez 1 - 49 will result in some form of public humiliation held by members of the AMV community. You have been warned.

Rule #52- Subtitles are a must, for any AMV. They clearly identify the editor as automatically AWESOME.
