How do you make pictures move on myspace?

GIF animation is what your referring to (Graphical Interface Format). It's basically a series of pictures in a sequence of events, to make it look like a movie, all you would do is arrange the series of pictures in a close time lapse like maybe 1 fps. ( 1 frame (picture) a second). To accomplish this you would use a GIF animator, which may end up costing you some money.





This is my free alternative idea.





1:) download paint.net off of http://www.getpaint.net/





2:) go to http://paintdotnet.forumer.com/ and download a small .exe (go to the plug in forum) called unfreeze.





To make a small movie .GIF, all you do is take the series of pictures, and apply them to the small unfreeze program. (make sure u apply them in order)





If your trying to convert a movie to a .GIF, go to windows movie maker and take a screen capture of every second of what you want to GIF animate. Screen capture every part of the movie you want to animate, remember to capture every second of what you want to animate.(when you save the file (picture) , save it in a number sequence so you remember what picture goes where, IE, pic 1, pic 2, pic 3, (do it in the order you want to animate) ).





alright open up paint.net and edit the pictures down, a lot, if the picture is big and your making a .gif with a lot of them, the .gif will be enormous in file size, in myspace, the default picture size is 170X126 (pixels), to edit this in paint.net (PDN) just go to file%26gt;new and make the pixel size 170X126. ( or go to IMAGE%26gt; RESIZE) alright after you have the sequence of pictures you want to animate, (make sure there all the same pixel size!!!)


Apply them to the unfreeze.exe and click "make animated GIF" it has options for loop (to replay itself) , and fps. just screw around with it and make several variations of the .GIF to do what you want.








On myspace- all you do is upload the .gif (make sure its under 5mb (if its over 1mb its wayyyy hugge) ). And make it your default picture. ( if thats what you want it to be)





OR





You can upload the photo to photobucket.com or some other image hosting site and paste the image(GIF) link on a comment or message or wherever html, java scripting is allowed.





%26lt;img src=" put the GIF URL here " border="0"%26gt;%26lt;/a%26gt; (paste this in the comment/message box)














*** There might be some free GIF animators out there, somewhere, Ive never found a decent one.***
