Question about motion banners

Post by ultimateX021 » Sun Jan 04, 2009 4:25 pm

Hello.

I don't know if this is a good spot to ask this curious question, but I would like to know how can I make a signature banner or a website banner with motion in it. I've seen some banners that can do it and I just got curious about it.

It's an Animated Gif.
Look for a program that can make them.
Keep it mind that it can be quite difficult to keep the filesize small.

Oh yeah! I've seen most of those animated features with a .gif file extension, so thanks for reminding me on that. Well, i'll keep in mind what you just said about the filesize, but for now, what programs could help me make them?

Adobe Photoshop.
You can get the trial from the website or buy it at Staples or something.

Or GIMP

It's free. May take awhile to figure out, but at least it's free.

So, Adobe Photoshop or the GIMP can allow me to make banners like that. Great! Thanks for the info. Now, I can download either one and try them out. Adobe Photoshop, however, will be something I plan to buy later on so I'll keep that in mind.

Thanks alot!! :up:

If I have any more questions about the programs, I'll leave a response to this thread after I tried some of them out.
