Make Your Own Animation

One can easily create a GIF animation with the help of a software called 'Adobe Photoshop'. The image file should be set to 100 x 100 pixels and the resolution at 72 pixels per inch. The mode should be set to RGB color. The 'show layers' option should be chosen from the 'floating palette' of the 'Window' menu. To draw a picture, the stencil tool should be used. A duplicate layer should be selected by clicking on the layer palette's sub-menu arrow. The next step in the process is to click on the eyeball icon present at the bottom of the layer palette on the left side. The image is saved by selecting the 'jump to' option under the file menu, followed by clicking on the 'Adobe Image Ready 2.0' option. The image should be saved when prompted to do so. Animation of the image is done with the help of the 'show animation' option present under the 'Window' menu. Clicking on the 'show animation' option would bring up the 'animation floating palette'. The 'Make Frame from Layers' option which is present under the 'animation palette sub-menu' is used for the purpose of animation. The animation needs to be saved by clicking on the 'Save Optimized As' option.
