Now we need to save it in gif format, so File-Save As Use the rectangle select tool and mark on or close to the dotted line, then select You can use the dotted line above to mark an area to get rid of. Everything outside this area will be background. You will notice the yellow dotted line? This is put in by GIMP and defines the edge of the optimised area, but also the limit of the widest avatar image. The optimised image will open as a new image.

Sorry, I don’t know how to do it in any of the other packages, if anyone wants to add a quick for them, please do, I would welcome it. Now we go back to our drawing application to create a gif.

Remember though resizing down is better than resizing up, due to quality.Ĥ) Again like the Snap shot dialogue, you can have the default background of blue, change the colour or upload an image of your choice.ĥ) When done, click “Save All” and you get to choose where to save it. With the default setting you would get 90 jpgs HF_Head0000 through to HF_Head0089.ģ) You can adjust the size of your pictures. With 25 shots you will get 25 jpgs named HF_Head0000 through to HF_Head0024. I’ve found 25 and 2 work fine.Ģ) Base Shot Name is start of the filename – in this case HF_Head. Playing with the options here will show you the difference in rotation. You will get a similar dialogue to the Snap shot above.ġ) number of shots defaults to 90 and length (or ‘length’) defaults to 3 seconds.
