Author Topic: How do I create a GIF?  (Read 679 times)

No, before you ask, this does not belong in Help, because it is not about Blockland.

Anyway, every time I attempt to create one, when I put it on the forum and upload it as a picture, it never works.

I always thought to make a gif you put in the URL for it, but apparently there is no URL bar to put it at.

Please help? I really want to make a GIF that works.

well it if it works correctly then it needs to be 75x75 like mine

By never works I mean that it always gets stuck as one of the frames.
Also, when I try to make it transparent, the background, it just turns out black.

Use Photoshop, that's how I got this wonderful avatar of Virginia

I don't have photoshop :c

Is it free? I don't do much image editing, and neither have I ever bothered to.

This site makes it easy.
I've tried that site before and it never worked. The transparency didn't work once again, and it was stuck.

EDIT: I finally got it! Thanks!

If you don't want to use a website, use unfreez. It's really great, and it's how I got this sack of stuff avatar.
